17 May 2007 [13:41] - TODAY.AZ
The State Alumni website https://alumni.state.gov -an online community of alumni of U.S. government-sponsored exchange programs has posted one more announcement that disputes Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity.

The announcement calls all interested persons to participate in the conference on "Sushi's role in Armenian history" to be held on June 20-25.

The announcement falsifies the name of ancient Azerbaijan town of Shusha stressing its role in the "liberation" movement during the first Karabakh war and as the cultural centre of Armenians.

Another dirty fact is that the organizers of the conference are Kamo Atayan, 'education minister' of 'Nagorno Karabakh Republic' and Hamlet Grigorian 'Artsakh State University's rector.'

The Association of Azerbaijani students studied in US has already applied to the editors of the web-site with protest letter. APA
