Caucasian House and Armenians Conference opens in Baku with Azerbaijani and Georgian scholars - UPDATE - PHOTOS

Conference "Caucasian House and Armenians" arranged by the Human Rights Institute of the National Academy of Sciences of Azerbaijan and the Association of Women-Journalists of Azerbaijan launched in Baku with participation of Azerbaijani and Georgian scholars.

In her opening remarks MP Aytan Mustafayeva, Director of the Human Rights Institute, told the conference that the Georgian community and the Azerbaijani community should work together to unmask the facts of Armenian occupation, which have taken place all over the history. Azerbaijani and Georgian scholars should make politicians aware of such facts. "Armenians try to veil their actions by the concocted "Armenian genocide", but the real genocide facts are the people buried alive by Armenians and whole villages annihilated by them," Mustafayeva said.

The Institute’s Director said Samtshkhe-Javaheti is a delayed-action bomb, which can be used by Armenian politicians for their interests in future. She urged politicians to be attentive to such issues. She said the psychology of Armenians is based upon misappropriation of alien values.

"There are dozens of ethnical groups, which have been populating Azerbaijan since the Zoroastrian era. In Azerbaijan, there is a synthesis of cultures, which is an indicator of tolerance," Mustafayeva added.

"Armenians have been inventing new history of their "statehood" for centuries", Guram Marhulia, PhD, Professor of the State University of Sukhumi, told the conference in a report. The Georgian scientist said Georgia’s 18 wars with Armenians have been marked in the history.

"Armenians in all times were specialized in trade and espionage," Marhulia noted. "Armenians at different times spied for the interests of Persians, Arabs, Russians and others who tried to invade Caucasian countries."

In his report, the Georgian scientist drew historic facts to illustrate terrorist, annexionist actions of Armenians in the territory of Georgia.

The Armenians want to conceal their annexionist actions through spreading the topic of concocted "Armenian genocide" in the world media, Sevil Yusifova, Head of the Association of Women-Journalists of Azerbaijan, said. "Azerbaijani and Georgian scholars must unite their efforts to notify the international community of the truth of Armenia’s policy in the Caucasus."

As claimed in the Soviet period, Armenians and Georgians had lived in peace, brotherhood over the whole length of history, Nodar Berulava, PhD, Professor of the State University of Sukhumi, told the conference in his report "Armenia-Georgia: Out-of-Scene Side of Friendship". "However, all historical examples illustrate that Armenians had territorial claims against Georgia at different periods," Berulava added.

According to Berulava, Armenia has never had its strict border -- an indication of the fabricated nature of statehood of this ethos. "Unlike the rest nations of the Caucasus, the Armenians, who had resettled here from other territories, always aimed at self-identification," the Georgian scientist stressed.
