Azerbaijan, Baku, 6 June / corr. TrendNews M. Aliyev/ The development
of false propaganda on the so-called Armenian genocide by the Ottoman
Empire pursues the political aims, the American historian Justin
McCarthy said.
`They want to win in politics, therefore they are using history,' the
American expert said to media in Baku on 6 June.
`On other hand, the Armenians always had negative and tense relations
with Turks during the entire history. The Armenians have a very strong
Diaspora which has been established for long years, the fact which
plays its role. It is very difficult to change this situation right
now,' McCarthy said.
According to expert, the goal of the historians is to write a truth
and the goal of Azerbaijanis and Turks is to inform the international
community about this truth.
As to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, McCarthy said that `if Armenians
believe that a part of Nagorno-Karabakh should be Armenia's territory,
then it is necessary to take into consideration that a large
proportion of the Armenian territory is the historical lands of
Azerbaijan and thus they should be returned'.
Justine McCarthy is author of 11 books dedicated to Turk-Armenian
problem. His works have been translated into Arab, Turkish, Russian
and other languages.
