Oqtay Atakhan: "The whole territory of the so-called "Republic of Armenia", each piece of it, is an original territory of Azerbaijani nation"

22 April 2008 [14:44] - TODAY.AZ
Day.Az interview with leader of Azerbaijan's Humanist Party Oqtay Atakhan.

-Mr.Atakhan, how would you comment on the fight, which occurred in the Temple in Jerusalem between the Orthodox Christians of the Armenians and Greek churches and can this episode demonstrate one of the most evident diseases of world Armenians, as an attempt to demonstrate their "exclusiveness" in everything, including issues of religion and history?

-As a principal opponent of any religion with all its postulates and attributes, including Christianity with its false concepts of "God", of temple and grave", I would abstain from commenting on the fight between two groups of religious people. Such ambitious competition is peculiar not only of these branches and not only inside Christianity, but also inside all other regions and between religions and their communities.

As for "exclusiveness" and "antiquity", this is the main propaganda hobby-horse of all mono-national religions and religious branches. If today khayas (which are khayas, not Armenians, as they are mistakenly called in the whole world, including by us, thus agreeing and legitimating the misappropriation of our ancient national name ar-men) have an opportunity to state their "antiquity" and "exclusiveness" everywhere, this is a contribution of their nationalized Gregorian Christian church. We can mock at it as much as we want, but the fact is that if not for this nationalized religion-there would have not been any Khaya-Armenian nation and everything, which they are now attribute to themselves would have been a part of our Ar nation.

20 years have already passed since the time when I have proposed an original historical concept of the Azerbaijani nation, the only national and the most ancient historical concept by its roots. In the whole world, the enemies and opponents of our nation have  evaluated this concept, but not Azerbaijanis, not Azerbaijani historians and the overall Azerbaijani intelligence, for whom it is more comfortable to think by imposed alien historical stereotypes than disclosing the historical truth, whose discovery is undesired for the remaining "ancient" and "exclusive" nations and is favorable to us, as it confirms that our nation is at least the most ancient of all existing nations if not "exclusive.

-The article "Vardan Oskanyan's choice or what the Armenian Foreign Ministry has turned into" I have reminded the events of 269 when Armenia was sinking in disorder, and was attacked by Persian Tsar Shapur the Second, who brought Armenian Queen Paradzem to Persia to abuse her in a specially built house, which led to her death in terrible pain and disgrace.

After this article was published, the Armenian "analysts" being not able to oppose this fact, stated that not the Queen but those who made use of her were in disgrace. Is this an appropriate argument considering the fact that there are numerous examples of how kings and queens preferred to die in order not to be captured?

-It should be noted that Khaya are not original inhabitants. The whole territory of the so-called "Republic of Armenia", each a piece of it, is a native territory of the Azerbaijani nation. And any historical kingdom, ever existing in that land, was the kingdom of the Azerbaijani nation, regardless of its religious belonging in any historical period.

The thing is that Persians, like Khaya are also aliens on the Iranian land which means that in all historical periods, kingdoms, existing in the whole territory of the present-day Iran-are ancient, native Azerbaijan states, regardless of their confession belonging. And any clashes and conflicts between the two mono-national states have been the results of the ruling political and geopolitical competition.

This more resembles us. It is enough to read our dastans to understand that in all times our most vulnerable point, used by our enemies, were internal wars. We are always trying to find enemies among our people, at the same time being careless about our real enemies. Thus, by attributing any historical kingdom, existing on our land, to any other nations, including Khayas and Persians, we thus confirm the "righteousness" of their claims regarding the "alien Azerbaijani-Turkic people".

-Why, on the whole, do Armenians demonstrate a very selective attitude to history?

-Khayas have no history. They have made their history from the history of the Azerbaijani nation. And, therefore, in this case they should be selective, as they can not attribute the whole Azerbaijani history to themselves.

-In a couple of days the Armenians of the whole world will again sing their "old song", creeping over the "genocide" of 1915. Why do more and more countries believe this myth each year?

As for the so-called "genocide", this is a genially scripted and propagandized action, which is nearing its end,  and which aims to get final recognition of the "Armenian nation as a full aboriginal establishment on our native lands not only in the world history, but in the world policy.

Why is the whole world ready to confirm and recognize this myth and falsification? The answer is simple: except for a small number, the majority of modern nations and peoples, who is scared of the resurrection of the ancient historical power of Ar nation. If not for Khayas and Persians, there would be other alien peoples and the world society would support their myths and falsifications.

-Do you think that there is a threat of world recognition of this historical falsification any time?

-I have already noted that historical falsifications do not begin with the so-called "genocide", on the contrary, this is a very successfully found final stage of historical falsifications, capable of fixing them as "a historical truth".

Naturally all these countries and nations, which are scared of the resurrection of the Azerbaijani-Turkic nation, are united in their striving to do everything to hamper this process or to eliminate the very possibility of it.

Today, we should use all our intellectual forces to restore our original national history. The most important is to have a historical concept, which we already have and it has been declared 20 years before. There is a need for a large staff of historical scientists, not tens but hundreds and thousands of scientists in the framework of not one but several scientific institutes, which would restore our native ancient history in all its directions and branches.

Will we do it some time, thus eliminating any "scientific" and ideological ground? No, in hundred years we will be the same abused and humiliated as we are today.
