/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Under the ethnic origin of the ruling clan in
Baku, the Kurdish subject area is one of the most sensitive topics in
present-day Azerbaijan. It is not enough that representatives of the
above-mentioned clan occupy high posts in the Azeri government. The
fact is that the founder of the Nakhijevan clan, former chief of
the Azeri SSR National Security Committee Heydar Aliyev took part in
formation and training of Turkey's number one enemy - the Kurdistan
Workers' Party," says a statement issued by the NKR Foreign Ministry
as regards the Kurdish theme gambled by the Azeri authorities.
According to the NKR MFA, Turkey's cool attitude toward Aliyev senior
is conditioned by this very fact.
"During a visit to Baku in January 2003, head of AKP party Recep Tayyip
Erdogan said that PKK cells were functioning in Azerbaijan. Erdogan's
statement aroused indignation and then-Minister of National Security
Namik Abbasov had to issue a disclaimer," the statement says.
"In this context, the Azeri authorities' attempts to disown the
Kurdish problem fit in the republic's policy of solving a problem
'at the expense of somebody else'. Azeri media repeatedly reports that
Kurds settle down in former Armenian villages of northern Karabakh.
"Azeri authorities and structures financed by them claimed presence
of Al Qaeda camps, nuclear weapon laboratories and nuclear waste
landfills in NKR. The Azeri delegation to PACE circulated a document
saying that Armenians used nuclear weapons during the 1991-94 war.
"Understanding the absurdity of making such statement on the state
level, Azerbaijan put forth Nizami Bahmanov, the so-called head of
Azeri community of Karabakh," NKR MFA said.
