the statements about the alleged Armenian genocide is one of the key
goals of the events held by the Azerbaijani Diaspora within a year,
Valeh Hajiyev, first Deputy Chairman of the State Committee on Work
with Azerbaijanis Residing Abroad, stated to TrendNews on 24 April.
According to Hajiyev, the State Committee does not hold any special
event on 24 April in order to disclose the myth about the Armenian
genocide on the day of the so-called Armenian genocide, as its main
direction is attached to inform the international world about the
occupation policy of Armenia.
Hajiyev stated that the resolution of Berlin Conference of Coordinating
Council of Azerbaijani-Turkish Diaspora organizations, held in March,
as well as the Friendship and Brotherhood Meeting of Turks in Baku
and many other events publicized the necessity to strengthen forces
to disclose false Armenian pretensions.
"The Armenians are concerned with the activity of Diaspora
organizations," Hajiyev stated.
Armenia has accused Turkey of committing genocide against 1,500
Armenians in 1915-17 during the Ottoman empire. There are no any
diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey with Armenia-Turkey
border being closed since 1993 at the initiative of the official
Ankara. The Turkish government has dismissed statements on the alleged
Armenian genocide and officially states that the resettlement of
Armenian population for the security in Ottoman empire cannot be
described as genocide. The Turkish Premier Rajap Tayyib Erdogan
officially called on Armenia to study the archives of both countries
and to set up joint history groups to analyze the event that took
place in 1915. Armenia has not yet responded.
