“My fellow compatriots!
One of the most intrinsic qualities of the Azerbaijani people is
to always stand ready in helping each other and demonstrating unity
and solidarity at all times, and to be united hand in hand in face
of all difficulties and challenges. The support you extended to the
Turkish people since the first hours of dramatic earthquake
occurred in the brotherly Türkiye, is another bright evidence of
how unshakeable, strong and eternal are brotherhood, friendly ties
and mutual love between our peoples.
I thank our rescue teams involved in the rescue operations in
the earthquake zone, our medical workers that spare no efforts to
restore health of all injured and diplomatic service staff seeking
and evacuating Azerbaijani citizens that suffered from this
tragedy, mass media representatives tirelessly reporting the
events. My thanks go to each of our fellow compatriots, local
companies and organizations that joined the Aid Campaign started in
our country, and particularly, volunteers that work day and night
with all their forces in assembly points, police officers, and to
all and everyone that try to be with the brotherly Turkish people
at this time. Thank you very much for your humanism, charity and
mercy. I feel proud of being Azerbaijani!
We are very saddened to see the rising number of victims in the
aftermath of earthquake. I pray Allah to rest the souls of all
perished in peace, and express once again my deep condolences to
their relatives and close ones. I wish the soonest recovery to all
injured! I am confident that the Turkish people shall withstand
this dramatic test of time by its will and courage! May Almighty
God save our world! Türkiye, we stand united with you!”
