Ilham Aliyev: “Agdam-Khankendi-Shusha highway will be opened”

"We will also restore the city of Agdam. Of course, for this we must do everything thoroughly. A master plan will be prepared, specialists will be involved, infrastructure projects will be implemented in a planned manner, administrative buildings, social facilities, roads and other necessary works will be done. The statement came from Supreme Commander-in-Chief, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev in his address to the nation. According to the President, the state will help citizens to return there: "Therefore, the restoration of the Aghdam region will have a special place in our future plans.
Because it is a large district in terms of territory, and at the same time, as I said, it is the largest district in terms of population. In fact, our restoration work has already begun. During his visit to Fizuli, all relevant instructions were given on the construction of a new road from Fizuli to Shusha, funds were allocated from the President's reserve fund, initially 50 million manat. But these funds will not be enough. Additional funds will be allocated next year. According to my instructions, the Ahmadbeyli-Alkhanli-Fuzuli-Shusha road is divided into several parts. I have instructed several companies to be involved so that we can build this road without wasting time and in a short time. Because the citizens of Azerbaijan know that the road to Shusha used to be the Agdam-Khankendi road, but now it is not possible to use this road. "The trilateral statement signed on November 10 states that all communications will be opened, including the Agdam-Khankendi-Shusha highway, which will be opened after some time. I believe that the opening of communications, as well as the roads and communications connecting the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic and the main part of Azerbaijan, will also contribute to long-term peace in the region in the future. These issues will be resolved in a planned manner. We have already started the first big project. In the same way, we will take consistent steps to restore the city of Agdam and all its infrastructure. The people of Aghdam and all other regions liberated from occupation can be sure that the Azerbaijani state will always be with them, "Aliyev added.
