BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 17.

The head of state also noted: "Educating the younger generation in our countries in the spirit of patriotism, fidelity to national principles, and our moral values is also crucial. In this context, of course, this represents a broad domain in which the OTS must actively work, including within the framework of measures related to youth policy."
