Foreign journalists visit Azerbaijan's Aghdam

A group of foreign journalists visited Azerbaijan's Aghdam city, liberated from the Armenian occupation.

Report informs that journalists from Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and the UK could see all the destruction with their own eyes. They visited the Juma (Friday) Mosque in Aghdam, got acquainted with the consequences of Armenian vandalism - the destroyed buildings of the Bread Museum and the Drama Theater, visited the Imaret complex, which houses the palace of the founder of the Karabakh Khanate, Panahali Khan.

After visiting the ruined remains of the Agdam Drama Theater, a Mexican journalist, Canal Once anchor Federico Lamont said that they reminded him of what he saw at the Peace Memorial Museum in Hiroshima.

"Armenians stole Azerbaijanis' land and destroyed everything that was on it. Those who committed these crimes must be tried and convicted not only by UNESCO for the destruction of cultural monuments but also in The Hague. This would restore historical justice," Lamont said.

Four large parks, 23 city parks will be established; in general, the "green" zone will make up 20 percent of the city's territory.
