Doctor of law: Armenians attempt to take "historical revenge" from Turks and Azerbaijanis

Armenians attempt to take "historical revenge" from Turks and Azerbaijanis, said Kamil Salimov, doctor of law and head of criminalistics chair of the Baku State University.


According to him, we should think about it. He said the thing is that we do not have serious scientific studies to expose the falsifications about "Armenian genocide.

"We have adopted the law on Azerbaijani genocide in a response to similar steps of Armenians. In order to oppose and really present the Azerbaijani genocide, our scientists must study the issue of the "Armenian genocide" and this falsification. And who among our scientists is studying this problem?", asks  Salimov.

"Unfortunately, our people do not realize the importance of this. When we start studying the issue of "Armenian genocide" and referring to Armenian authors, we are accused of betrayal. How ridiculous! How can we expose the Armenian "genocide" without studying this issue?".

According to him, the problem also lies in the approach of international organizations.

"Today, the problem of "genocide", put foward by Armenian nationalists, is aimed at the development of the conflict situation in the relations between the peoples. The tragic history of the past should not be used as a basis of policy of today's governments. But the interesting fact is that today this history is taken as a basis by the politicians of the leading states.

And the fact that today Armenians set the issue of recognition of 1915 "genocide" before Obama, is not merely of historical trend, it also has definite political goals. These goals are to take the "historical revenge" from Turks and Azerbaijanis and give a psychological justification for the occupation of lands in Nagorno Karabakh. This is their definite goal.

I would like to note once again that Azerbaijani and Turkish scientists work in this direction too weakly. Can you present me several basic works on this topic by Azerbaijani scientists to expose the falsifications of the "Armenian genocide" on the international level. Personally I have never seen such works. There are just several articles on this issue. And this is against the fact that Armenians raise this issue in April of this year", noted Salimov.
