Zardusht Alizadeh Political analyst Zardusht Alizadeh commented on
a video material shown on EuroNews TV channel.
"Don't you really know how people abroad perceive the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict?", said political analyst Zardusht Alizadeh, commenting on
the film shown by EuroNews TV channel, which presents very slanderous
and one-sided interpretation of the events of the Karabakh war. The
history and culture of the region are represented purely in Armenian
mythological version that bears no attitude to reality
According to the expert, everyone knows that the European countries
support Armenia, including the mediators of the Minsk Group. "They are
not even mediators. The military, economic and political assistance
to Armenia is provided by these four countries. The West has always
supported Armenia. World operates by double standards. They see the
conflict this way. Armenians revolted against Azerbaijan, fought a
holy war and "liberated" land ", Z. Alizadeh said.
The expert believes that in order to counter this, there is a need to
conduct propaganda, in accordance with international standards. "They
raise a religious issue to get support saying Muslims are torturing
Christians and they need help. But religious factor plays no role in
this conflict. This is an ethnic and territorial conflict that was
mongered by the West", said the politician.
In his opinion, in order to work with Euronews, there is a need for
journalists who can work by international standards. "In order to have
such journalists, the faculty of journalism in Azerbaijan should move
to modern standards of education. There are almost no professional
journalists, that would meet European standards, Azerbaijan ", said Z.
Alizadeh.
