Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev today (6 July) gave a series of orders allocating funds to counter damage done during last year’s 44-day war. The four orders requested the following transfers from the reserve of the president of Azerbaijan, as had been envisaged in Azerbaijan's state budget for 2021:
- 30 million manats (€14.9 million) to Azerbaijan’s State Committee for Urban Planning and Architecture, for “the restoration of damaged facilities and the implementation of repair and construction work”;
- 5.4 million manats (€2.7 million) to Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Economy, to “eliminate the damage caused to the civilian population and state-owned vehicles, business entities”;
