YEREVAN (YERKIR) - Â"Apprehensions of Armenians and international
intelligentsia that Azerbaijan's intentions to establish peace in
the region are not serious confirmed.
The organized armed response of Azerbaijan to peaceful demands of
Karabakh self-determination was the first attempt of ethnic cleansing
in the Soviet space twenty years ago,Â" Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian
said at the opening of the first session of the UN Council on Human
Rights in Geneva.
Speaking of destruction of Armenian khachkars (stone crosses) in Old
Julfa in Nakhichevan, Oskanian remarked that outrage of the memory
and spirit of Armenians in the lands that belong to Azerbaijan now
is cynical and dangerous.
Â"Ancient khachkars were destroyed just a few months ago. Now there
are no graves either,Â" the FM said.
Oskanian remarked that the Armenian people, who underwent terrible
ordeals, had to witness destruction of monuments of its spiritual
culture even in the 21st century.
Â"The organized destruction of khachkars not far from Nagorno
Karabakh signifies that Azerbaijan's tools and intentions did not
change. This act brings to naught mutual confidence and peace,Â"
Oskanian underscored, reports the Armenian MFA Press Service.
