Azerbaijani parliament discusses marking National Flag Day

Azerbaijan, Baku, May 26 / Trend , A. Huseynbala/ 

The Azerbaijani member of parliament has proposed to mark National Flag Day.

"The decree signed by president to build Square of the National Flag is very important. The fact that the president inspected construction of the square recently is praiseworthy," MP Ali Masimli said at the parliamentary meeting on May 26. 

The foundation of the Square of the National Flag was laid near Naval Forces base in Bayil settlement on December 30, 2007. 

The text of the presidential Decree on Building Square of the National Flag at the Capital of Azerbaijan Republic dated to November 17, 2007 is depicted here.

Masimli offered to celebrate National Flag Day on November 9.

Azerbaijan's Constitution stipulates that flag, coat of arms and hymn are Azerbaijan's state emblems.

Azerbaijan's national flag consists of three equal horizontal bands colored blue, red, and green, with a white crescent and an eight-pointed star are centered in the red band.
