The conference, held in Moscow on "Cultural heritage, culture of Lezguin people: history and present day world", is an attempt to breed separatism in Azerbaijan.
The due announcement was made by parliamentarian Jamil Hasanli at today's session of Milli Medjlis.

He noted that the conference mostly spoke of the history of the Caucasus Albania.

"Ancient Albania located in the territory of present day Azerbaijan. Yet, Russian side did not invite representatives of our country for this event, though our countries maintain an intergovernmental agreement on cooperation in humanitarian sphere in 2007-2009. A part of this agreement refers to history", said he.

According to the deputy, the event was attended by scientists and representatives of state structures.

According to Hasanli, Russian side tried to attach scientific nature to this conference, yet the science was spoken of formally.

"The conference participants studied issue of possible pressure on Azerbaijan by way of separatism. It all occurs on the background of the implementation of oil contracts and transportation of Azerbaijani oil to the countries of the world

Otherwise, the organizers would not have invited representatives of countries, dissocial towards Azerbaijan. Our official structures should give due response to conduction of such events", said he.
