Samad Seyidov: We proved by April war that the occupiers will be removed from our lands

"Operation carried out by the Azerbaijani Army with courage and heroism to liberate the occupied lands went down into our history with glorious and golden letters," Head of the Azerbaijani delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) Samad Seyidov said at the meeting of the Joint Working Group on Human Rights held in Milli Majlis.

He noted that Azerbaijan sent a message to the world through the April battles: "We have once again given serious messages to both the world and forces that occupied our lands. We declared that our lands will be liberated from occupation. We proved by April war that occupiers will be removed from our land. We are proud of these battles. However, we also sadden, as the heroic sons of Azerbaijan were martyred during the operation. They sacrified their lives for the territorial integrity of our country and duly executed the order of Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev. "
