At the forum, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev expressed gratitude to the Uzbek people and leadership. He emphasized that Uzbekistan has a special role in the restoration of Karabakh.
In particular, he highly appreciated the establishment of a school named after Mirzo Ulughbek in the city of Fuzuli, intended for 960 students, initiated by Shavkat Mirziyoyev. According to Aliyev, this assistance from Uzbekistan is not only material but also a moral support.

Experts and the public state that this is a solid foundation for strategic cooperation between the two countries. The establishment of new schools, international projects, and the strengthening of brotherhood spirit are creating new opportunities for the development of the region, including the entire Turkic world and the Eurasian community.
In conclusion, Uzbekistan's role in the restoration of Karabakh and the personal fate of the Aliyev family have historical significance in this region. New educational institutions and strategic projects will further strengthen the friendship and cooperation between the two countries.
