    letter to Turkish journalist

    Azerbaijan, Baku, May 1 / Trend R. Hafizoglu /

    The Center for Eurasian Security and Strategic Studies director Khatam
    Jabbarli sent an open letter to Turkish journalist of "Hurriyyet"
    newspaper Mehmet Ali Birand.

    In his letter Jabbarli indicated mistakes made in pro-Armenian
    journalist Mehmet Ali Birand's articles concerning Azerbaijan.

    Strengthening of the Turkish-Azerbaijani relations, strong rebuff of
    the two countries towards pressure from certain centers of power, the
    basic position of the fraternal countries cause serious concern of
    Turkey's and Azerbaijani opponents.

    Turkish journalist Birand conducts anti-Azerbaijani propaganda for a
    long period. Azerbaijani press responded by sound arguments on the
    author's claim of an article published April 15 in the newspaper
    "Hurriyyet". The following article dated April 28 shows that Birand
    was instructed to conduct "revision" of Azerbaijani-Turkish relations,
    make a possible blow on fraternal relations.

    "There are many mistakes in Birand's article. There were so many
    mistakes that I am tired to find and correct them. If Birand wants, I
    can give him lessons of history and grammar of the Turkish language,
    at least to prevent distortion of our beautiful Turkic language and
    not to allow leading the society in the wrong direction. Birand made
    serious mistakes. He is not even able to copy. He must be more
    attentive. There are no such people as Azeri. There are Azeri Turks.
    Turkish journalist made a serious mistake. He wrote that the
    Azerbaijani parliament abolished the autonomous status of Nagorno
    Karabakh in 1989", the letter says.
