The 3rd volume of the monograph "Azerbaijan Policy of Large States
During World War I /1914-1918/" by Doctor of History, Prof. Musa
Gasymly has been issued. The publication may be described as the
author's practical realization of the task to study deeply 20th
century Azerbaijan history.
The book contains documents, photos and maps kept in archives and
libraries in Azerbaijan, USA, Germany, Great Britain and other
countries. The long-term research has allowed the scholar to throw
light on the obscure pages of the one of the heaviest and most
complicated periods of the Azerbaijan history by studying the factors
conditioned the large states' policy towards the country in 1914-1018,
and their plans concerning North and South Azerbaijan.
While reading the book, one can take a clear view of the attempts
by Turkish diplomacy to involve European states in liberation of
Azerbaijan from colonial oppression, Russia's fight against Islamists
and Turkists, role of the Armenians in this struggle, Antanta member
states' support for separation of the South Caucasus from Russia,
confrontation at the Caucasian Seym, Turkish Army's offensive in the
Caucasus and other historical, diplomatic and political events.
The documents presented including secret diplomatic correspondence
allow a modern reader to realize the today's role of the leading
countries in the socio-political and economic life in our independent
republic, find out the reason for the double standards policy towards
our country. Azerbaijan has always been in the past and will continue
to be the point of collision of the large states' interests. They use
every possible means to reach their goals, history repeats itself,
it only remains for us to infer from its lessons, the book says.
