Arpa Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Azeri Confession-Armenian Lands. We read in Groong; AZERBAIJANI SCIENTISTS ADMIT THAT AZERBAIJANI REPUBLIC FOUNDED IN ARMENIAN LANDS STEPANAKERT, DECEMBER 3. ARMINFO. The Azerbaijani scientists admit that the Azerbaijani Republic was founded in Armenian lands, said Artsax scientist and ethnographer Hrachik Haroutiunyan commenting on the recent statements on the Azerbaijani radio by Doctor of Historical Science Nazim Mamedov and Professor of Historical Department of Azerbaijani State University Rovshan Hasanov. He said that Professor Mamedov is for erection of a Monument for Turkish Asker symbolizing, in Mamedov' words, "the army of Ottoman Turkey which took the region from Armenians" in the towns of Shemakh, Shushi and in Baku. According to Mamedov, the Monument must be opened in the autumn of 2005 and a special delegation should be invited from Turkey. Hereby Azerbaijan will thank the Turkish asker for taking these lands from Armenians by force. Despite this, the Azerbaijani authorities and the pro-governmental press keep stating at the CE, UNESCO, UN that Artsax is their historical territory, Haroutiunyan said.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggyhonents Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Arpa - why on earth do you think that this Azeri propaganda is a good thing? It is just repeating their standard propaganda that has been around for the last 80 years, and which says that in 1918 the heroic Turkish army freed the patriotic Azeri people of Baku from their bloodthirsty Armenian oppressors. Is this really the dismal level of understanding of things in Stepanakert? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
