    Azerbaijan will repeat Sumgait even today if possible: Bakur Karapetyan

    15:16 / 02/27/2010`February of 1988 was very tense ' rallies in
    Stepanakert, regional council's decision to withdraw Karabakh from
    Azerbaijan and integrate into Soviet Armenia etc,' head of Shoushi
    foundation Bakur Karapetyan told journalists on Feb. 27.

    According to him, these actions made Azerbaijani side to resort to
    massacres against Armenian population in Sumgait. `If Azeris have an
    opportunity, they will do the same today,' Karapetyan stated, adding
    that Khojali events were organized by Azeris to screen Sumgait crime.

    `As a TV reporter I took the camera and went to Sumgait, where I
    talked to massacres' victims and witnesses. The whole information is
    included in &`¦And about it' a book and in &`Sumgait waves' film,'
    Karapetyan said.

    He maintained that the book remarks his 8-day observations taken at
    the scene, assuring that all are based on true stories. `All shots of
    film and 100 videos are captured in hot spots,' he stated. Karapetyan
    also noted that all his stock materials are currently used by Azeri
    side as their own archive. `Azerbaijani side lies a lot of and we
    should do all we can to counter its spread in media,' he reckons.

    Speaking about another book `Collection of Artsakh battle', the author
    stressed that it is already published and he expects to issue 12 more
    volumes in addition to the existing ones. `I have a huge archive,
    materials are ready. I only have to find sponsors,' he concluded.
