BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 13. Master plans of Shusha, Jabrayil, Kalbajar, Zangilan, Gubadli, Hadrut and Sugovushan settlements should be prepared and approved this year, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said during a meeting dedicated to the results of the first quarter of 2022, Trend reports.
"The master plans of other cities should be approved soon. Master plans of Shusha, Jabrayil, Kalbajar, Zangilan, Gubadli, Hadrut and Sugovushan settlements should be prepared and approved this year, and then additions should be made to our investment program for Karabakh and East Zangazur. As it was noted here, a total of 2.2 billion manats is envisaged. But a little more than 300 million manats was used in the first quarter. Of course, after the master plans have been approved, we will only deal with specific issues. First of all, I mean the construction of residential buildings. Because other infrastructure projects are also being implemented. To speed up the demining process, about 100 million manats is envisaged in the state budget for this year, and this is a priority for us. Because without resolving this issue, we cannot place people in those areas. But once we are sure that those areas have been cleared of mines, we can start placing our citizens there," the head of state said.
