Azerbaijan loses the information war with neighboring Armenia
due to inability "to motivate" the fabricated lies, trying even in
Wikipedia. The latest book on Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh, published
in Ukraine, is the shining example.
The book "Conflicts and wars after the collapse of USSR" has been
republished thanks to the efforts of the Armenian community of Ukraine
and ANALITIKA.at.ua information-analytical center in particular. In
the new edition of the book no distortion about the history of
Armenia and the Nagorno Karabakh Republic is observed. Reportedly,
T Y. Bogdanovich, and A. Ya. Manachinsky, the authors of the edition,
had included articles with false information about Armenia.
As ANALITIKA.at.ua website informs that the city libraries of Odessa
have already received the republished versions of the book. In the
coming month the Ukrain's bookshops will increasingly receive the
new books as well about Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh.
Armenian youth organizations of all over Ukraine alongside with
ANALITIKA.at.ua information-analytical centre will promote to the
implementation of this activity.
The officials in Azerbaijan are quite disappointed over this as their
efforts to fabricate the historic facts are systematically failing. A
new reason for disappointment was observed yesterday in one of the
well-known websites of Azerbaijan Bakililar.az. This time Azeris are
complaining against Wikipedia.
For example, they are surprised that Nagorno Karabakh Republic is
named Artsakh at the mentioned website. They are just bewildered:
"Azerbaijani officials must undertake corresponding steps...prior to
the conditions these steps may be of different kinds as diplomatic,
public or scientific interventions.
In Azerbaijan, they themselves accept the lack of corresponding
specialists in the state. As an expert on international relations
in one of US universities Elhan Agamirzaev says, it is useless to
address a letter to the Wikipedia management as the articles of that
on-line encyclopaedia are written and posted on the basis of facts
collected all over the world ."This method admits to get more objective
information through discussions and comparison of different opinions,
as to Azerbaijani side it has no mechanism to work with Wikipedia"
The whole point of the mechanism is to prove the credibility of the
introduced facts.
"State officials are better to exert efforts aimed at this issue rather
than directly to the on-line published materials. Otherwise Azerbaijan
will lose the information war", an expert from Azerbaijan notes.
