    TURKEY SHOULD MOVE TO DIPLOMATIC ATTACKS ON ARMENIA - AZERBAIJANI DEPUTY

    Elman Mammadov News.Az interviews Elman Mammadov, a deputy of the
    Azerbaijani parliament and former chief of executive powers of Khojaly.

    Are you satisfied with Turkey's position in the issue of confrontation
    to fictional "Armenian genocide"?

    Turkey is a big and a strong country. But the policy conducted by
    the current authorities of Turkey has weakened its importance in
    the world. Armenia will pursue Turkey unless Turkey starts to run
    away from Armenia. Turkey must not go on a leash of Armenia, it must
    put pressure on Armenia. Turkey must not shelter more than 100,000
    Armenian citizens, feed them and provide them with the opportunity to
    earn money. Unfortunately, the Turkish premier (Recep Tayyip Erdogan)
    speaks about it with a pride. Why does Turkey need to shelter more
    than 100,000 illegal Armenians, feed them, establish four air flights
    a week between Istanbul and Yerevan?

    How can Azerbaijan and Turkey confront the claims of the Armenian
    party about fictional "genocide" on the international arena?

    The Grand National Assembly of Turkey must recognize the Khojaly
    genocide. Turkey should do this to create a balance in the world
    against mythical "Armenian genocide". The rest Turkic speaking
    countries and other Muslim states must follow Turkey's example to
    create a definite balance between Christian and Muslim states. In
    fact, different Christian clubs, either EU or the Council of Europe
    are in a state of the Crusade against the Muslim countries. We should
    resist this and this requires the unity of the Muslim world. Despite
    existence of the Organization of Islamic Conference, there is no
    Muslim unity there and this organization does not have any influence
    on the international arena.

    Which steps can Turkey take in case the US Congress adopts a resolution
    on "Armenian genocide"?

    Turkey has great opportunities in this issue. It can prohibit the
    US military base on its territory. Turkey is NATO's key to the East
    and the overall control over the East. Therefore, Turkey can close
    this door for NATO. Turkey may say to the West that such actions may
    result in Turkey's unwillingness to see Armenia as its neighbor. Thus,
    Turkey can inform the West and they oblige it to take this step on
    Armenia. It should be brought to the attention of the West that its
    willingness to create the Armenian state in Turkey in the early last
    century has resulted in 1915 events and the repetition of such acts
    can prompt the same events.

    Which effective steps should Azerbaijan authorities take for the
    international recognition of the Khojaly genocide?

    The Azerbaijani parliament has started to adopt political acts on the
    recognition of the Khojaly genocide since 1992. Among these facts, it
    is necessary to stress the resolution of Milli Medjlis of 24 February
    1994 envisioning recognition of the Khojaly genocide. The work in
    this direction continues both on the level of Milli Medjlis and the
    government. But we should not stop and we must take more effective
    means for the international recognition of the Khojaly genocide and
    liberation of the occupied lands.

    It is high time to pass from theoretical issues to practical actions,
    especially in the direction of liberation of the occupied lands. In
    other words, we must demonstrate our strength to the enemy. We
    have this strength. By demonstrating this strength, we will show
    the world that we are able to liberate the occupied lands and just
    do not do it so far. How long will these negotiations last? These
    negotiations have been held for more than 18 years and how long will
    they continue? We are so far listening to the recommendations of the
    UN, Council of Europe, OSCE, superpowers, OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs
    about the inadmissibility of war. But not a single part of our lands
    have been liberated through these negotiations.

    What is your opinion about establishment of terms by Azerbaijan for
    holding peace talks on the Karabakh conflict settlement?

    It is time for Azerbaijan, in particular, for Milli Medjlis to adopt
    the statements to UN, OSCE, OSCE co-chairing states and the Council of
    Europe. These statements must be prepared in the norm of notification
    that these organizations will be responsible for the launch of war. We
    must set the term in these documents that in case the occupied lands
    are not liberated within, for example, a month or a year, Azerbaijan
    will take effective measures in line with the international law,
    in particular, it will use the forced way of the liberation of the
    occupied lands.
