President Ilham Aliyev has said that the formation of children loyal to national values is of exceptional importance, Azertag reported on November 18.

He made the remarks in an address to participants of the  All-Republican Forum of Azerbaijani Children on November 18.

“Children are the future of society. The formation of our children as individuals loyal to our national values and high moral standards is of exceptional importance for the progress of our country,” he said.

He noted that the consistent social policy of Azerbaijan to protect children’s rights also serves this purpose.

The president emphasized that many of the issues raised at the last forum are fully reflected in the “2020-2030: Strategy of the Republic of Azerbaijan for Children”, which aims to ensure the comprehensive protection of children’s rights.

“You are lucky to be living in our country as it has entered the new century and the new millennium as an independent state. You should be proud to be witnessing the glorious and dignified history of our victorious people,” he said.

Aliyev underlined that with the victory in the Patriotic War, the Azerbaijani army restored not only historical justice but also the rights and freedoms of more than a million refugees and IDPs, which had been violated for more than 30 years, “thus avenging our innocent children who fell victim to enemy provocations”.

He added that today Azerbaijan is on the path of rapid development.

“The fact that our country is getting stronger and stronger every year is also a guarantee of your happy and prosperous future. The current generation will entrust mighty Azerbaijan to you. That is why you must always work hard and represent the Motherland with a deeper realization of your responsibilities. I believe that you, as a spiritually rich generation, will grow up in the spirit of Azerbaijanism and spare no effort for the future development and success of our Republic,” he said.

“Your [children] participation in this Forum, which brings together all Azerbaijani children, is a manifestation of the great confidence shown in you. I do hope that the discussions you will hold within the Forum will mark the beginning of a new stage in the implementation of our country’s children policy,” he added.
