No one doubted that Ilham Aliyev would win the extraordinary presidential elections in Azerbaijan scheduled for February 7, 2024.

Axar.az informs that this is stated in the article published in "Komsomolskaya Pravda" newspaper.

"Today, the President, who solved the long-standing problem of Azerbaijanis, is at the top of the people's respect. This was also shown in the votes given to him. Russian leader Vladimir Putin congratulated Ilham Aliyev on his victory in the extraordinary presidential elections held in Azerbaijan. Most of the voters went to vote early: 6,300 polling stations were opened at 08:00 in the morning, and as the Chairman of the Central Election Commission Mazahir Panahov noted, for the first time in the history of the country, polling stations were opened on the entire territory of the country," the article noted.

"As soon as the information disclosed in the briefing appeared on the news feeds, a nationwide celebration began in the streets of the city. In Baku, the roar of car horns did not stop for several hours, and national flags were flying over them. The squares were full of citizens congratulating each other. For all of Azerbaijan, February 7 has become not just an election day, but a real holiday," the material emphasized.
