We are grateful to Azerbaijan for its contributions to our joint fight against global terrorism.
“Elchi” reports that this was stated in the information of the US Embassy in Azerbaijan.
The information states that today, the staff of the US Embassy in Azerbaijan gathered to commemorate the nearly 3,000 people who lost their lives during the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and their aftermath.
“Together, we remembered the victims of the attacks and their families, the first responders who courageously faced the unimaginable danger, as well as everyone whose lives were changed forever after that tragic day.
We also recalled that after the attacks, many countries around the world, including Azerbaijan, demonstrated solidarity with the United States. US and Azerbaijani soldiers served shoulder to shoulder as part of coalition forces in Afghanistan. We are grateful to Azerbaijan for its contributions to our joint fight against global terrorism.
25 years ago, terrorists attacked the United States with the aim of threatening the American way of life. From within the darkness, the eternal truth of the American character shone for the whole world to see. The terrorists did not achieve their goals — they could not shake the spirit of our people,” the statement noted.
