"Azerbaijani MFA Press Secretary Elkhan Polukhov made regular
attempts to introduce negatively the Karabakh party, stating this
time about Armenians' destruction of the Azerbaijani cemeteries,"
the NKR Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
"We should note that unlike our neighbors, who are barbarously
destructing the Armenian monuments in the territories under their
control so far, the NKR authorities took under their own protection all
the Muslim monuments over the NKR territory, including the Azerbaijani
cemeteries, from the first days of the war imposed by Azerbaijan,
which could be witnessed by numerous international and Azerbaijani
delegations visiting Nagorno Karabakh.
As of the photo-materials allegedly testifying to the destruction of
the Azerbaijani cemeteries by Armenians, it is obvious that certain
destructions at the noted cemetery were caused by the military
activities during the war unleashed just by Azerbaijan. Polukhov
tries to gamble just on this.
Unfortunately, such fabrications and forgeries have been practiced by
the Azerbaijani propaganda machine since long ago. Everybody still
remember the attempts of the Heydar Aliyev Fund, which is under the
top patronage of the Aliyevs family, to introduce the pictures taken
in Kosovo as those of the Khojalu events.
Polukhov's statements can be evaluated as a regular attempt to cast
a shade on the Nagorno Karabakh Republic and draw the international
community's attention away from the vandalism organized systematically
by the Baku authorities, in particular, the destruction of the
primarily Armenian Narimanov cemetery in Baku on the pretext of
building a highway, or the recent destruction of khachkars (cross
stones) in Old Jugha in Nakhichevan where no military activities
took place.
To confirm the abovementioned, let's give an extract from the recently
published international report on religious freedoms of the USA
Department of State's Bureau on Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor:
"The hatred towards the ethic Armenians made the majority of them
to leave the country in the period between 1988 and 1990, and all
the Armenian churches, the majority of which were destroyed during
the ethnic-base mass riots (over ten years ago), are still closed,"
reads the statement of the NKR MFA.
