Miralioglu criticized Azerbaijani authorities for downplaying Rasulzade\u2019s role in the history of Azerbaijan.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  &#8220;Shame on those who swear to Azerbaijan\u2019s flag, create a Flag Square, but not put Rasulzade\u2019s historical statement about the flag (Once Hoisted Flag Will Never Fall) on this complex,&#8221; he was quoted as saying by<br \/>\n  <i><br \/>\n    Turan<br \/>\n  <\/i><br \/>\n  .\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Meanwhile, Musavat leader Arif Hajili expressed his conviction that Rasulzade\u2019s ideals of Azerbaijan as an independent and really democratic state would come true.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  The head of the National Center for Strategic Thought, Isa Gambar, told<br \/>\n  <i><br \/>\n    Turan<br \/>\n  <\/i><br \/>\n  that Rasulzade\u2019s contribution to Azerbaijan\u2019s statehood is unparalleled. &#8220;There have always been those who wanted to create obstacles on this path (to independence and democracy in Azerbaijan). But there were also great personalities that continued this way. And we will continue this way. This historical process cannot be stopped,&#8221; Gambar said.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  Born in Novkhani village in 1884, Rasulzade was one of the towering figures of Azerbaijan\u2019s statehood. In 1909, he fled to Iran due to pressure from tsarist Russia, where he started publishing his newspaper<br \/>\n  <i><br \/>\n    New Iran (Iran-e Nou)<br \/>\n  <\/i><br \/>\n  and co-founded the Iranian Democratic Party. He subsequently migrated to Turkey after falling out of favor with Iran for calling for autonomous Azerbaijan. In 1911, Rasulzade founded the Musavat party.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n  On May 27, 1918, Muslim members of the Transcaucasia<br \/>\n  <i><br \/>\n    n<br \/>\n  <\/i><br \/>\n  Commissariat gathered in Georgia and formed the National Council, headed by Rasulzade. The following day, the council proclaimed the independence of Azerbaijan and formed the first government of the People\u2019s Republic of Azerbaijan. In April 1920 following the Bolshevik occupation of Azerbaijan, Rasulzade was subjected to harassment and arrest. He died in Ankara, Turkey on March 6, 1955.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On January 31, Azerbaijanis marked the 132nd birth anniversary of Mammad Amin Rasulzade, was one of the towering figures of Azerbaijan\u2019s statehood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":46865,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_sitemap_exclude":false,"_sitemap_priority":"","_sitemap_frequency":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-173258","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","infinite-scroll-item","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-33","no-featured-image-padding"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
