    AZERBAIJAN TO EXPAND CO-OP WITH WHO

    ASSA-IRADA
    31, January, 2008

    Azerbaijan will continue to expand cooperation with the World Health Organization (WHO), said President Ilham Aliyev receiving the organization's Director-General Margaret Chan.

    "We plan to develop and modernize the heath system, construct new hospitals with up-to-date equipment. Certain results have been achieved in this direction. Yet, we have larger plans for future," he said.

    Chan, in turn, expressed gratitude to the Azerbaijani side for supporting her candidacy for the post of WHO Secretary General. "The ongoing reforms in the health system, including your initiative in this area, as well as your plans on allocation of funds for health from the State Oil Fund and application of the mandatory medical insurance are worthy of commendation," she said.

    NATION MARKS 90TH ANNIVERSARY OF FIRST ORIENTAL DEMOCRACY
     Azeri News, 27, May 2008

    May 28 marks the 90th anniversary of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic (ADR), the first-ever democratic republic in the Orient.

    President Ilham Aliyev on Tuesday paid tribute to a monument dedicated to its establishment in the center of Baku. Hosting a solemn reception on this occasion at the Gulustan Palace, Aliyev pointed to the tremendous historic role of ADR, regarding its creation on May 28, 1918 as a remarkable development.

    The president emphasized that present-day Azerbaijan has taken its worthy place on the world stage.

    Referring to the changes taking place in the country, President Aliyev said that along with economic reforms, political ones are under way. He said Azerbaijan’s current development is related to the parallel conduct of these reforms. The economy is developing successfully and the republic’s diplomatic power is growing. Great attention is being paid to the development of education, healthcare, information technologies and other fields.

    Aliyev said Azerbaijan will fill the ranks of the world’s developed countries in the near future.
