Most of our forests remain intact because enemy could not get into these forests - President of Azerbaijan

BAKU, Azerbaijan, Dec. 1

Trend:

Most of our forests remain intact because the enemy could not get into these forests, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said addressing the nation, Trend reports.

“In Lachin district, we have large forest areas – 22,000 hectares of its territory is covered by forest. This is also our great asset. Kalbajar district has 24,000 hectares of forest. In Zangilan and Gubadli districts, there are 12,000 hectares. At the same time, Hadrut district and a part of Khojavand district liberated from occupation have large forest areas too. Forests are the lungs of our planet. The hated and savage enemy had been cutting down and plundering our forests for 30 years, and recently set them on fire. Despite this, most of our forests remain intact because the enemy could not get into these forests, as they are located in remote mountain ranges. Of course, the restoration of destroyed and ruined infrastructure, including the felled trees, will also be in the spotlight,” the head of state said.
