For the third year in a row, the people of Azerbaijan celebrate the victory over fascism as a winner nation. After its 44-day Patriotic War, Azerbaijan has created new realities in the world and the region. This time, under the leadership of President Ilham Aliyev, our people have won a great victory over Armenian fascism. Historically distinguished by their militancy, courage, bravery, and fearlessness, this nation has achieved many successes on the page of its history. But the 44-day Patriotic War is engraved in the country's history as the brightest victory. The Azerbaijani people played a major role in winning the Second World War.
Azerbaijanis made great sacrifices both on the front line and the rear during the war. Baku oil has an essential role in ensuring victory. 300,000 out of 600,000 Azerbaijani citizens did not return from war. For their great courage, 43 Azerbaijanis were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. While 30 were awarded the Order of "Glory" in all three degrees. The names of Hero of the Soviet Union for twice Hazi Aslanov, Heroes of the Soviet Union Israfil Mammadov, Aslan Vezirov, Adil Guliyev, Ziya Bunyadov, Garay Asadov, Melik Maharramov, Mehdi Huseynzade and generals Mahmud Abilov, Akim Abbasov, Tarlan Aliyarbeyov, Hajibaba Zeynalov and many of others have been written in our people's history with golden letters for their bravery.
During the war, a lot of works were done to direct the economy to serve the front. In a short time, Baku became an essential arsenal of fighting the army. Despite all the difficulties, oil workers showed heroism and sacrifice and provided the front and the industry with fuel. Under the leadership of academician Yusif Mammadaliyev, new technology for producing aviation petrol was established. Oil workers achieved a record indicator in Azerbaijan's oil production through hard work, removing 23.5 million tons of "black gold" in 1941. It was 71.4 percent of all the oil produced in the USSR. The Azerbaijani oil workers produced 75 million tons of oil, 22 million tons of gasoline, and other oil products in total. Baku oil was one of the main factors in the victory over fascism. It would be enough to say that four of every five aircraft, four of every five tanks, four of every five cars worked with Baku fuel.
