On the occasion of Victory Day and National Flag Day of the Republic of Azerbaijan, an exhibition entitled "Republic of Azerbaijan: a land of ancient culture and rich traditions" was organized by the Embassy of the Republic of Azerbaijan to the Republic of Bulgaria in Plovdiv city on 9 November 2021.

Opening the exhibition, Ambassador Huseyn Huseynov said that the Victory Day and the National Flag Day are very significant and important in the history of Azerbaijan.
