“All archeological monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh belong to Azerbaijan,” Azerbaijani National Academy of Sciences Archeological and Ethnography Institute Director Najaf Museibli said while commenting on Armenian media reports on “archeological finds” by Armenian scholars which allegedly belongs to “Tigranakert” town in Nagorno-Karabakh.
“There have neve been any Armenian towns and monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh. Armenians settled in Nagorno-Karabakh only after Iran and Russia signed Turkmenchay treaty in 1828. “Tigranakert” is another lie by Armenia. There are many ancient monuments of Azerbaijani origin in Nagorno-Karabakh,” he said.
