PM said that it is a matter of pride for him to participate in the Victory Day ceremony.
“I congratulate the government and people of Azerbaijan on behalf of the people of Pakistan.”
The Prime Minister of Pakistan said that US President Donald Trump played a role in promoting peace around the world. He was also grateful to Azerbaijan and Turkey for standing with Pakistan during the Indian aggression.
“It was President Trump’s bold and decisive leadership that brought about the ceasefire between Pakistan and India, restoring peace in South Asia – averting a major war, and saving millions of people,” he reiterated.
Azerbaijan’s Victory Day is celebrated on November 8, which commemorates its triumph in the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War in 2020, resulting in the liberation of Azeri territories from the Armenian occupation in nearly 30 years.
