Hajibala Ibrahim oglu Abutalybov (Azerbaijani: Hacıbala İbrahim oğlu Abutalıbov, born May 13, 1944) is a Turkmen Azerbaijani politician and deputy prime minister of Azerbaijan. He is the former Mayor of Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, and he used to be Mayor of Baku between 2001 and 2018.

Abutalybov was born in Kyzyl-Su, Turkmenistan. He graduated from Azerbaijan State University with a degree in Physics in 1965. In 1969, he was enrolled in post graduate program at Ioffe Physical-Technical Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Saint Petersburg, Russia. In 1976, he received his PhD and defended his doctoral desertation in 1987.[1]

Abutalybov served as the head of the laboratory at Physics Department of Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences in 1995. Same year, he was appointed the Head of the Executive Power of Surakhani district of Baku which he held until 1999.[2] In 2000, he was appointed Deputy Premier of Azerbaijan Republic.

In 2005, Abutalybov told a visiting German delegation from Bavaria concerning Armenians and the Nagorno-Karabakh War: “Our goal is the complete elimination of Armenians. You, Nazis, already eliminated the Jews in the 1930s and 40s, right? You should be able to understand us.”[3][4][5]

Abutalybov has served as Mayor of Baku for 17 years, between January 30, 2001 and 2018.[6] He is married and has two sons.
