Abstract :Numerous books have been written and scholarly studies conducted on the life and work of the national leader Haydar Aliyev. Among these, one of the most significant is the book \\\"The Image of Azerbaijan in the English-Language Press During the Independence Period (1993-2003),\\\" published under the academic supervision of Kamal Abdulla. This book highlights the portrayal of Azerbaijan in English-language media outlets from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and other foreign countries during Haydar Aliyev’s presidency of an independent Azerbaijan. It focuses on how Azerbaijan was perceived from the outside, the international perspective on the Karabakh war in the 1990s, and the successful policies implemented by the national leader. One of the central themes of \\\"The Image of Azerbaijan in the English-Language Press During the Independence Period (1993-2003)\\\" is the Karabakh issue, which dominated the political agenda in the 1990s. The examination of this topic in the international media plays a crucial role in communicating the realities of Azerbaijan to the global audience. During the 1990s, Azerbaijani media sometimes struggled to cover the events related to the Karabakh conflict as effectively as foreign journalists. The study draws upon publications such as the UK’s The Gazette, The Times, The Guardian, The Economist; Canada’s The Globe and Mail; Australia’s The Sydney Morning Times; and US-based outlets including The New York Times, The Daily Herald, The Middle East Journal, Forbes, and others.
