Azerbaijan declared independence without holding a referendum, as it
was afraid of the reaction of the indigenous nations living on its
territory. Despite the Azerbaijani pressures, under the conditions of
Internet accessibility those nations manage to express their protest
against the posture of Azerbaijani authorities.
Azerbaijan deliberately persecutes all those who dare express their
protest and hint that Armenians should not be conceived as rivals.
Azerbaijanis send representatives of those indigenous nations to the
line of contact, which is a purposeful step. Thus, Azerbaijan makes
its enemies clash with its other, and makes this serve its interests.
Political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan draws attention to the
fact that event the word `Talish' is banned in Azerbaijan, and recalls
that last year the leaders of the indigenous nations urged their youth
not to go to the line of contact and not to fight against Armenians.
The indigenous nations living in Azerbaijan demand autonomy inside the
country. Moreover, a few days ago the issue of independence of
indigenous nations was raised at a conference at Moscow's President
Hotel. The statement was met with ovations in Moscow and with arrests
in Baku.
Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan is assured that escalation is inevitable. The
political scientist keeps in touch with representatives of indigenous
nations of Azerbaijan and convenes periodic discussions. He suggests
opening of representations of Azerbaijan's indigenous nations in
Armenia.
