The delegation, which arrived in Baku to participate in the meeting titled "Strengthening Cooperation in Security and Defense Among Turkic States: The Role of Parliaments," laid fresh flowers at the Victory Monument and paid deep respects to the memory of those who lost their lives in the Patriotic War.

The guests were provided with detailed information about Victory Park, which was established to preserve the memory of Azerbaijan’s unmatched heroism and historic victory in the Patriotic War and to eternally honor the memory of the fallen martyrs.
