    TOP OFFICIAL: 'STONE DREAMS' NOVEL TO FURTHER UPSET AZERBAIJANIS

    AzerNews, Azerbaijan
    April 17 2013

    The 'Stone Dreams' novel will cause even more upset for the Azerbaijani
    people and the national and state interests of Azerbaijan in the
    future, Head of the Azerbaijani Presidential Administration's Social
    and Political Department Ali Hasanov said.

    He was commenting on the translation of Akram Aylisli's novel into
    Armenian and the staging of it in that country.

    "All subsequent generations in Azerbaijan will suffer the consequences
    of this disgusting work. In each period the Armenian state with
    its ideological structures and the Armenian Diaspora will use Akram
    Naibov's anti-Azerbaijani position against us. We should be ready to
    respond to this with real facts," Hasanov said.

    The scandalous novel 'Stone Dreams' by Akram Aylisli (Naibov), which
    distorts the historical facts, was published in the Armenian language
    in Armenia.

    The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict emerged in 1988 when Armenia made
    territorial claims against the neighboring country. Since a lengthy
    war between the two South Caucasus countries that displaced over
    a million Azerbaijanis and ended with the signing of a precarious
    cease-fire in 1994, Armenian armed forces have occupied over 20 percent
    of Azerbaijan's internationally recognized territory, including the
    Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.

    Peace talks brokered by Minsk Group co-chairs representing the United
    States, Russia and France have been largely fruitless so far.

    The negotiations are underway on the basis of a peace outline proposed
    by the Minsk Group co-chairs and dubbed the Madrid Principles, also
    known as Basic Principles. The document envisions a return of the
    territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh to Azerbaijani control;
    determining the final legal status of Nagorno-Karabakh; a corridor
    linking Armenia to the region; and the right of all internally
    displaced persons to return home.
