'Armenian genocide'"
The Azerbaijani state commission for POWs, hostages and missing people
has sent numerous states, including Turkey, a collection of materials
about Armenian terrorism on the eve of an ''anniversary" of the
so-called Armenian genocide, the head of the working group of the
state commission, Firudin Sadiqov, has told Ekspress.
"Our materials mainly provide information about the tragedies suffered
by Azerbaijani POWs and civilian hostages in Armenian captivity during
the Karabakh conflict. There are also specific reports about ethnic
cleansing, destruction and pillage of our historical heritage and
monuments on occupied Azerbaijani territories," Sadiqov said.
Baku hopes that the submitted materials will prevent the so-called
Armenian diaspora and Armenia from raising a traditional hue and cry
about the so-called genocide in the world every year and will reveal
the truth.
"Tortures the Armenians used against Azerbaijanis throughout history
is the actual genocide and this should be given an assessment," the
head of the working group said.
He noted that the collection of materials prepared by the state
commission had been sent mainly to relevant research centres,
universities and political bodies in Turkey and other countries.
