"The dream of returning to the slave of the Great Leader, who celebrated his 100th anniversary with great respect, is being fulfilled."

The EPA reports that finance minister Samir Sharifov said this during a discussion of a proposed amendment to the 2023 State Budget Act of the Republic of Azerbaijan at a meeting of the National Assembly today.

The minister said that the rebuilding of territories liberated from invasion in Cambodia and Eastern Zagreb was our new mission: "President Ilham Əliyev has deployed the Azerbaijani people to carry out this mission. This mission consists of the implementation of the Great Return program. As a result, these areas will also be reintegrated into Azerbaijan's economy. Large projects are being founded in Cambodia and Eastern Zagreb, some of which have already been completed and used. In the 2023 government budget, 3 billion dollars (U.S.) were approved for the reconstruction of these areas. 60 percent of this tool has already been used."
