PanARMENIAN.Net - However weird it may seem there is no informational
war between Armenia and Azerbaijan, an Armenian expert said.
According to Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan, there is a virtual space
created by Azerbaijan, where it `fights' against itself.
`That way Azeri are trying to convince their people that they have
been victorious in that field as well, but in reality all they have
been doing during the past six months is arguing the speeches and
statements by Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan. That is to say the
main goal of the Azerbaijani media is to refute statements made by the
Armenian officials,' he said.
At the same time, Melik-Shahnazaryan noted that Azerbaijan is
presently in a very complicated situation as it recently has been
subject to criticism by the international organizations in terms of
democracy and tolerance. `Meanwhile the information war with Iran is
aggravating and the tense relations with Tehran. Moreover, relations
with considerably worsened with Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan
and Russia,' he noted.
The expert compared Baku's propaganda to the behavior of a prostitute,
as the government of the country declares that they are in good terms
with many countries, however has failed to establish normal relations
with at least one of them so far.
