Mehriban Aliyeva
A public and political figure who made a great contribution to the development of our independent state
Yes, truly, in every stage of our history the name of the Azerbaijani woman is spoken with great honor.
As a caring mother, a naturally gifted poet, a strong-willed ruler and a deeply wise thinker, she wrote her name on many pages of our history.
Sometimes even researchers, scholars and politicians from abroad note: “Before coming to Azerbaijan, we thought your women were weak, passive and unaware of their rights. But during our visit we see the exact opposite — why is that?” Of course, we answer that this is the culture, the value and the code of ethics we belong to.
