All this seems like a miracle to us, including me.
Axar.az reports that President Ilham Aliyev expressed these thoughts at a meeting with participants of the III Shusha Global Media Forum.
“As for the Great Return, we need to create a separate large panel for this, and I will answer this question for a few hours. Because the work done is so extensive that it is difficult to express it in one answer. Everything is in sight. The number of people returning is increasing and will increase even faster in the future. Because in the first 4 years we were engaged in more infrastructure projects, most of which we have almost completed. All of Karabakh and East Zangezur are provided with a circular electricity network and are also connected to the traditional electricity economy of Azerbaijan. Here, hydroelectric power stations with a capacity of 280 MW already produce electricity, and this electricity goes from Karabakh to other regions of Azerbaijan. Because today there are not so many people living in Karabakh to need so much electricity.
You have just come by car, and you have also passed through tunnels. 7 tunnels have been built on the Fuzuli road alone. The total length of the tunnels is 80 kilometers. The longest tunnel will probably be ready in the next 2-3 months. The length of this tunnel under the Murov mountain, the length of just one tunnel It is 11,700 meters. That is, this is one of the longest tunnels in the world. The railway has been laid, and now it will be possible to travel to Aghdam by train comfortably. I recently laid the foundation of the Agdam-Khankendi railway. The construction of the Khankendi-Shusha cable car will probably begin soon. It will be a very scenic means, and the functional side of it is also very important. That is, construction and construction work are being carried out everywhere, and hospitals, residential buildings are being built. As I mentioned, after we complete most of the infrastructure projects, more funds will be directed to residential buildings. Yesterday, people returned to a village in the Khojaly region, and the number of settlements where former IDPs live has already reached 18. 1,500 students study at Karabakh University in Khankendi, and 300 teachers teach them. All this seems like a miracle to us, including me. However, it is no secret that I was involved in making all these decisions. But today, the fact that such a huge amount of work has been done in a short time once again shows how talented "We have our people. According to the information I have received, foreign representatives who have visited here say that it is not only about money. No matter how much money you have, if there is no human capital, if people do not work with their hearts, it is impossible to get anything done," I. Aliyev emphasized.
