Aliyev: (about the Karabakh war).
"You and the Turkish brother were with us for 44 days. The statement you made in the first hours of the war and your phone conversation with me showed the whole world that brother Turkey is on the side of Azerbaijan.
Your historic words have given us additional strength and spirit. These will never be forgotten. We are grateful to you. The political and moral support you have shown has strengthened our spirit even more. ".
