Representatives of different cultures and faiths have lived in Azerbaijan as one family throughout history - President Ilham Aliyev

BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 30. Azerbaijan,
which plays the role of a bridge between the East and the West, is
one of the unique places, where friendly and fraternal relations
have existed between peoples, and ethnic and cultural diversity and
high multicultural values have been preserved for centuries, said
President Ilham Aliyev as he sent a congratulatory letter to the
Jewish community of Azerbaijan on the New Year Holiday of the
Jewish people - Rosh Hashanah, Trend reports.
“Throughout history, representatives of different cultures and
faiths have always lived here in peace, good neighbourliness,
mutual trust and respect as one family without facing
discrimination.
Even today, in our country, where the atmosphere of exemplary
tolerance prevails, there are ample opportunities for ethnic and
religious minorities, including the Jewish community, to keep their
traditions, language and culture alive by taking advantage of their
national and spiritual values,” the head of state noted in his
message.
“I would like to particularly emphasize that as an integral part
and equal member of our society, our citizens of Jewish origin
contribute to conveying the realities about Azerbaijan to the world
community, and are closely involved in the public and political
life of our country, which is currently experiencing a great
progress and rapid development,” President Ilham Aliyev added.
