Baku, January 1 AZERTAC
“Azerbaijan has made significant investments in high technology and this year became memorable in this regard,” President Ilham Aliyev has said in his message of congratulation to the people of Azerbaijan on the occasion of the Day of Solidarity of Azerbaijanis of the World and the New Year.
“This year Azerbaijan acquired its second satellite. In November this satellite was handed over to Azerbaijan. So we have two satellites now: "Azerspace" and "Azersky". What makes "Azersky" special - only 20 countries in the world have such a satellite today - is that it observes the earth with high precision.”
“Thus, we are fully providing for Azerbaijan's national interests, our security-related interests. At the same time, we are developing our space industry,” said the President.
