One of the main tasks before Azerbaijani youth in the whole world
is to protect the national heritage from Armenian usurpers and to
oppose to the Armenian propaganda full of lie and fabrications,
the head of Azerbaijani Presidential Administration's department on
public-political issues Ali Hasanov said in his statement, made on
Saturday at the I World Azerbaijani Youth Congress which is being
held in German city Frankfurt.
"Azerbaijani young people in the world must be converted to such
a significant factor, force which may be taken into consideration
in those countries where they live. The more you integrate in
public-political environment, society, the more your words have
importance in states where you live and study in the more it will
have great significance for the dissemination of the fair Azerbaijani
country's voice in the world. In this direction you must act in
all states together with Turkish Diasporas and make effort to tackle
jointly mutual problems. At the same time you, as the young Azerbaijani
young people living in various states of the world must know each other
very well else you can not tell the world about Azerbaijan. Therefore,
it is necessary to take advantage of the chance for the communication
which is granted by this event," Hasanov said.
On Saturday in Frankfurt at the "The Westin Grand" hotel the work of
the first World Azerbaijani Youth Congress has been commenced. The
Congress is organized by the Azerbaijani State committee on the work
with Diaspora jointly with the national Ministry of sports and youth.
This arrangement is being held according to the "State program of
Azerbaijani youth" approved by the Azerbaijani president, the State
committee on the work with Diaspora reported.
Hasanov told in detail about the youth policy of Azerbaijani state. He
reported that all peoples and states in the world always pursue
special policies regarding youth. According to him, one of the main
missions of every state is to prepare the generation which will be
able to be trusted.
"The main direction of our policy regarding to Diaspora is the work
with Azerbaijani youth, of our youth policy - to hold effective and
correlated activity with the youth, of our educational policy - to
bring up new, healthy, reliable, contemporarily thinking, intellectual,
high-level educated youth," Hasanov said and noted that the youth
policy composes the fundament of every state.
Mentioning the history of the Azerbaijani youth policy, Hasanov
reminded that the one of memorable steps made by the Azerbaijani
national leader Heydar Aliyev after his return to power in 1993 was
the creation of the Ministry of youth and sports in 1994.
"At that time when our public political life came to grief, the
national leader foresaw these days, the future of the youth by this
step, by the commencement of the youth policy. The national leader
formed rightly and successfully the youth policy by the establishment
of the healthy state fundament," Hasanov said.
At his appeal to the youth, Hasanov said that the one of the main
obligations imposed on them is the familiarization with national and
universal values, getting of nice education, acquiring modern values
but at the same time - never forgetting national roots.
"Your power, your intellect is the power and intellect of the
Motherland, state, nation. One of the main tasks of the policy
exercised by the president Ilham Aliyev is the upbringing of the
healthy and the educated youth. However, regardless from the location
where you live never forget our people and Motherland, mother tongue,
national values and traditions. People will know us, love us, respect
us and support us to such a degree as you will represent our people
and state", he said.
In the name of the chairman of Azerbaijani youth organization of Russia
(AMOP) Leyla Aliyeva the executive director of this organization Emin
Hajiyev read her letter addressed to the Congress participants. In
this letter she underlined the importance of this forum as the first
event when representatives of Azerbaijani youth who are living abroad,
in Europe, America, on different continents and in various countries
will feel moral unity, get an opportunity to make acquaintances with
people making efforts zealously to achieve mutual goals.
"All Azerbaijanis are united by the love to their Motherland regardless
of their residence. The first World Azerbaijani Youth Congress held in
Frankfurt is not also good ground for the establishment of friendly
and business links among Azerbaijanis but also a unique, rare chance
for the strengthening connections with Motherland, reinforcement of
the young people's socio-political activity. Besides, the Congress
is creating the conditions for the attraction of new forces in
order to form and reinforce links within Azerbaijani Diaspora
functioning throughout the world. Attachment of the big significance
to this work by Azerbaijani state is very important support for
us. This proves once more that we are on the right way and moving
on successfully. Azerbaijani youth organization of Russia has been
already functioning for two years and all this time it endeavored to
support the initiatives of the young Azerbaijanis to wide extent",
reported in the Leyla Aliyeva's letter.
During the previous years AMOP widened significantly the geography
of its business, reported in the letter.
"Today our departments are functioning near in all regions of Russian
Federation. All our arrangements are oriented to the consolidation of
our youth. We help them to get education, support the dissemination
of healthy lifestyle, of the rise of attention towards cultural and
historical values; we promote their desires to study mother language,
literature and national traditions. These are all very important",
Leyla Aliyeva considered.
According to her, the participation on the Congress of the several
hundreds of young people representing a number of countries of
the world is proving once more the importance of communication of
Azerbaijani youth with their peers.
"I am sure that all participants of the meeting are talented, perfect,
bright and creative people. You all are making efforts in order to
get higher education of high quality in prestigious universities of
the world. You all are having the serious goal and don't abandon to
achieve it. This means that you are the trust and basis of the future
Azerbaijan. Your future is the future of our country. I am confident
that the establishment of the World Association of Azerbaijani Youth
within the youth congress, which participants we are, will be the next
and very important step on the way of the strengthening of our youth
Diaspora. Great tasks are waiting for us ahead on this way. I wish new
successes to you and new achievements to the work of the congress!",
reported in the statement of Leyla Aliyeva.
The 1st World Congress of Azerbaijani Youth will be one of the decent
pages of the rich public-political history of Azerbaijan, said Youth
and Sports Minister Azad Rahimov.
"I believe that everyone who was lucky to attend this historic
event, will feel a sense of pride in whole life and will be properly
understand the responsibility which rests on them in our modern
history," said the minister.
The minister noted that being deprived of its independence several
times, the Azerbaijani people have now become the owner of its
destiny. He stressed that the Azerbaijani state is developing based
on strong foundations that were created as a result of the authority,
militancy, determination and strong will of National Leader Heydar
Aliyev.
Rahimov also spoke about the work done in the field of youth policy
in Azerbaijan. "Over the past five years, the government has allocated
funds amounting to 3.8 million manat to support more than 350 projects
of youth organizations. Youth representation in government agencies
and elected agencies in the country increases every year. Currently,
approximately 30% of municipality members are youth, of whom 326 are
chairmen of municipalities," said the minister.
Rahimov also reported on the activities of diasporas of Azerbaijani
youth abroad. "Over recent years, the Azerbaijani youth, who study
abroad, have strengthened in the sphere of diaspora and lobbying. In
this case, the special role belongs to the State Program for Education
of Azerbaijani Youth Abroad in 2007-2015 signed by the President of
Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev.
"Within the program, every year Azerbaijani young people are sent to
study at prestigious universities in different countries. This program
creates new opportunities to strengthen the future of intellectual
potential of the country, the participation of youth in science and
business, as well as in the culture of our country," he said.
According to him, such conditions make it necessary to direct the
energy of youth towards productive direction and the formation of
intercultural dialogue.
"The correct application of the knowledge and skills is also
an important issue. In some countries, non-governmental youth
organizations are established to unite young Azerbaijanis living
and getting education abroad. Among them, I particularly note the
activities of the Azerbaijani Youth Organization in Russia. This
organization, chaired by the Head of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation's
representation in Russia, Leyla Aliyeva, turned into a single platform
that combines youth clubs and voluntary groups operating in Russia.
The projects realized by the organization are aimed at promoting
the Azerbaijani cultural heritage and its reality in Russia and
strengthening the ties between young people of both countries. Over the
past several years, forums of young Azerbaijanis studying in Germany,
France, Greece, Austria, Belgium, Britain and other countries have been
conducted. The forums were attended by parliamentarians, politicians
and businessmen in these countries. In addition, traditionally the
forms of Azerbaijani youth studying abroad are conducted during
