"As you know, relations between Turkey and Azerbaijan are at the highest level, and there is no area in which we do not cooperate. As two brotherly countries, we cooperate in all areas on the basis of mutual respect and mutual interests", said President Ilham Aliyev while receiving Turkish Minister of National Education Ziya Selcuk, APA reports.
"Education is also an important part of our cooperation. Because, in order to raise the young generation, to be connected to each other, of course, very important steps must be taken in this area, and in fact they are being taken. I am confident that during your current visit, many important issues will be discussed and concrete plans for our future cooperation will be drawn up.
A new era has begun in our country. After the Second Karabakh War, a period of recovery and reconstruction began. I will also present you a book dedicated to the destruction committed by Armenia in the liberated lands. You will see how much our lands have been destroyed. A master plan for the cities is now being prepared, and the construction of schools is planned as part of these master plans. The foundation of a school destroyed by Armenians in Shusha was laid this month. My dear brother, as a gift offered by Turkey during the visit of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the groundbreaking ceremony of the school was also included in the program.
We are currently carrying out very serious reforms in this area. Turkey's experience is very important for us. Additional proposals should be discussed on education, improving the quality of education, as well as closer ties between the youth of Turkey and Azerbaijan. Because we have created such a strong alliance that future generations must take their steps in accordance with this alliance, this brotherhood, and from now on they must be closely linked. I think that various events should be held for this purpose - youth forums, joint educational programs and other events. I am sure that you will discuss these issues with your colleague during the visit" the President said.
