Shusha, Azerbaijan, March 18. Azerbaijan needed the help of a world organization in the first years of our independence, if you look at the entire period of cooperation between Azerbaijan and the UN, Azerbaijani President's Assistant, Head of the Foreign Policy Department of the Presidential Administration Hikmet Hajiyev told reporters at an event in Shusha dedicated to the 30th anniversary of partnership between Azerbaijan and the UN, Trend reports.

Nowadays, Azerbaijan is a country that contributes to the UN and supports the goals of the organization, he noted.

The 30th anniversary of partnership with the UN is celebrated in the cultural capital of Azerbaijan - the city of Shusha, he added.

"Azerbaijan became a member of the UN in March 1992 and two months later the city of Shusha was occupied by Armenia, destroyed and turned into ruins and after the victory of Azerbaijan in the second Karabakh war, the city of Shusha was liberated. Today Shusha is the cultural capital of Azerbaijan, also the diplomatic center where the prospects for relations between the UN and Azerbaijan are discussed, which is of great political, diplomatic and symbolic significance," Hajiyev said.
