During the meeting with the youth, President Ilham Aliyev answered the question about learning program abroad.

The head of state noted that young people were sent in more than 300 educational institutions of 30 countries and 200 million manat was spent on these purposes.

Ilham Aliyev added that a new program was already developed and the appropriate order was given last year.
