President: Space industry is being created in Azerbaijan
Baku, April 28 (AZERTAC). “A policy of modernization is being conducted in our country at the moment. This policy is manifesting itself in all spheres. Specifically, our steps related to scientific-technical progress are aimed at the future. Maybe we are putting forward initiatives that are not typical of a young independent country. A space industry is being created in Azerbaijan. I am sure that this process will continue rapidly. This is our state policy,” President Ilham Aliyev said at the annual general assembly of the National Academy of Sciences.
The Head of State expressed belief that “after the first telecommunications satellite is put into orbit, this sphere will get an even greater impetus. A strong space industry will be created in Azerbaijan.” President Ilham Aliyev added “Azerbaijani science should also give support to these initiatives. Of course, international relations should play their role here. Cooperation with the world`s leading scientific centers should increase because, I think, our potential in this sphere does not meet our wishes yet. In general, cooperation with international scientific centers should be broader.”
