"Our sacred Victory is an enduring example of national will, patriotism and devotion to the state, which will be passed down to future generations. We pay our deepest respects to the cherished memory of the heroic sons of the Motherland who gave their lives for this great Victory and became martyrs, and express our gratitude to the veterans who sustained injuries and lost their health in the struggle to liberate our lands.
"The Azerbaijan Press Council extends its heartfelt congratulations to our people and members of the media community on November 8 – Victory Day. May our Victory be eternal and our unity unbreakable!" the statement said.
