Enver's body was buried near Ab-i-Derya in Tajikistan. In 1996, his remains were brought to Turkey and reburied at Abide-i Hürriyet (Monument of Liberty) cemetery in Şişli, Istanbul. He was re-buried on the 4 August, the anniversary of his death in 1922. Enver Pasha image remains controversial in Turkey, since Enver and Atatürk had a personal rivalry at the end of the Ottoman Empire and his memory was cultivated by the Kemalists. But upon his body's arrival in Turkey, he was sort of rehabilitated as the Turkish President Süleyman Demirel held a speech acknowledging his accomplishments for Turkish nationalism and following the end of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict in 2020, his role during World War I was praised by Recep Tayyip Erdoğan during the a victory parade in Baku.
