International Solidarity Day of Azerbaijanis

December 31, Tuesday

International Solidarity Day of Azerbaijanis is an annual public holiday in Azerbaijan celebrating the worldwide solidarity and unity of Azerbaijanis. The day was inspired by the dismantling of border fences between Soviet Azerbaijan and Iran in December 1989 and the collapse of the Berlin Wall in the same year.

The day was entered into the Labor Code of Azerbaijan as a non-working day, coinciding with New Year's Eve, and is celebrated by Azerbaijani diaspora across the world.
