Azerbaijan is deliberately trying to involve Israel and the Jewish
public in the senseless information confrontation with Armenia and
the Armenian Diaspora, which has nothing to do with the interests
of the Jews. Specifically, an article entitled "Azerbaijani, Turkish
and Jewish Diasporan organizations turn to Barack Oabma" is available
on the Azeri 1news.az website. The article contains an anti-Armenian
message signed by a number of organizations.
By "Jewish Diasporsan organizations" the authors most likely mean
the Cultural Center of Caucasian Jews (CCCJ). In any case, no other
organizations with a Jewish component are listed.
A representative of Armenia's civil sector, who is in close touch with
South Caucasian NGOs, told NEWS am that the CCCJ is headquartered
in Baku. It has about ten members residing in the Azerbaijani
capital. They are either Jews or persons of mixed race (Azeri-Jewish
mixed marriages).
"A letter to Obama is information bluff. No Jewish organizations
have signed it. Jews have questions to put to Obama, especially
the community's influential organizations. Azerbaijan created this
structure to make use of the name of Israel and issue statements on
behalf of the Jews to achieve its own aims," the source said.
A number of Turkish and Azerbaijani Diasporan organizations addressed
a letter to U.S. President Barack Obama raising issues related to
the situation in the South Caucasus and to the prospects of the
Nagorno-Karabakh peace process. It was kind of response to a similar
step made by the Armenian Assembly of America, which requested
the U.S. leader to make an estimate of Turkey's policy. Turkey
is not going to meet the requirements set by the road map of
Armenian-Turkish rapprochement, which was agreed with the Armenian
and Turkish Foreign Offices through the mediation of Switzerland. The
U.S. Armenian lobby is sure that Turkey is shirking its commitments -
it conditions the Armenian-Turkish reconciliation on the settlement
of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
