True communist must not be nationalist or chauvinist like Armenian communists: Azerbaijani communist party chief

“A true communist must not be nationalist or chauvinist like Armenian communists,” chairman of the Azerbaijan Communist Party based on Marxism and Leninism Telman Nurullayev said while commenting on refusal of Armenian communists to cooperate with Azerbaijani counterparts on Karabakh problem.
“Such a position always befits the Armenian side. Nationalism and separatism prevails in a left-wing Communist Party of Armenia. Internationalism is a fundamental principle of any communist. Communists must be international and ready for a dialogue with their counterparts from other countries. The Communists of Armenia are isolated and do not cooperate with the communist parties of the post-Soviet area,” he said.

“Left parties of Azerbaijan made proposals to Armenian to initiate discussions on the Karabakh conflict. This is our stance and we firmly believe that we can come to the negotiating table with Armenian communists,”  Nurullayev said.

“As communists and leftist parties are part of the labor force and labor force have never wanted a conflict or war between nations, from this point of view we turned to the Armenian-left parties to jointly discuss ways to resolve conflict peacefully,” he added.

“We suggested in advance that the Armenian side will provide a negative response, but we fulfilled our duty. If the Armenians are not communicative and does not want to negotiate with us, it is their stance,” he said.
