The center in Baku was illuminated with the Pakistan flag on Kashmir Solidarity Day to highlight the shared stance on Kashmir
The iconic Heydar Aliyev Centre in Baku was illuminated with the Pakistani flag on “Kashmir Solidarity Day”.
The gesture was a mark of friendship between the two countries and their principled stance towards the Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir, as per a statement issued by the Embassy of Azerbaijan on Kashmir Solidarity Day.
The Embassy also highlighted the friendly nature of government and people-to-people relations maintained between the two countries. People of the friendly Muslim country stand with Pakistan on the Kashmir issue.
Pakistan was at the forefront of support for Azerbaijan during its 2020 conflict with Armenia over the Nagorno Karabakh issue which led to a brief war between the two sides. Azerbaijan emerged victorious in the ‘Second Karabakh War’ and liberated several cities and nearly 300 settlements and villages from the Armenian occupation.
Pakistan’s Ambassador to Azerbaijan, Bilal Hayee, also shared the photo of the Heydar Aliyev Centre on Twitter.
