On November 3, the Azerbaijani delegation participating in the 41st Istanbul International Book Fair visited the monument of the national leader, founder of the modern Azerbaijani state, and great politician Heydar Aliyev in the Heydar Aliyev Park in the Sariyer district of the city.

The ceremony was attended by Deputy Minister of Culture of the Republic of Azerbaijan Farid Jafarov, Deputy Chairman of the Culture Committee of the Milli Majlis Gunay Efendiyeva, People’s Writer Elchin, Head of Office of the Turkic Culture and Heritage Foundation Fakhri Hajiyev, employees of the Azerbaijan Culture Center in Ankara, as well as our writers and publishers.
