Khojali lessons
(beginning in the previous issues)
Attempts for introducing Khojali genocide as “unhappy episode” of war times, are being continued till today. There’re such views that only people who wanted to run with weapons of Azerbaijani soldiers were shot at the “humanitarian” hall. And as if Azerbaijani army “put” the corpses of peaceful habitants on the way from Khojali to Aghdam.
Similar position is supported by the ambassador of RF in Armenia V. P. Stupishin, close friend of Zori Balayan and fan of Karabakhian mulberry vodka. He was awarded with medal “for activities he showed in NKR, for scientific grounding of Karabakh’s right for self-determination and for great depository in interpretation and defense of rights of Armenians of Artsakh”. In his book “My mission in Armenia”(2002) V. P. Stupishin calls Azerbaijanis as “Azeri Turks” and threatens Russia with pan-Turkism. He also considers Armenian aggression against Azerbaijan as legal struggle. 10 years after tragedy of Khojalians, the former ambassador became more frank: “Armenia is our strategic associate from ancient times till today. Absolutely, we have to support it. We protect both her and Karabakh, because there isn’t independent and friend Armenia for us without Karbakh. And Russia wouldn’t have any position in Caucasus without them… We just must keep Kabakh under our cover”.
Azerbaijan, having unbelievable loses from Armenian terror, joined anti-terror coalition very early. But Armenian terrorism isn’t even mentioned at the documents of coalition. Besides, there isn’t any clear and concrete reaction of the world community to the aggression of Armenia against Azerbaijan. This is the double-sided standard – Russian-American. This standard is determined by certain diaspora which has fantastic relations, affection and activities.
Baku didn’t get any support at the first Turkish summit held in October, 1992 in Ankara. Karabakh problem wasn’t mentioned at the final declaration on the contrary of the principal position of Turkey: summit as if solves only cultural problems.

Nurlana NURSUZ: “Give me the light of eyes, Sarkisyan!”
Extradition and amnesty of R. Safarov caused real bomb of feelings on the whole planet. Splendid celebration of the just in one side, and this event caused real sensation in Armenian and pro-Armenian society. It was as fatal stroke for Armenia and it lost its balance. Serj Sarkisyan immediately called extraordinary gathering of national safety council where he stated about severing of diplomatic relations with Hungary and even threatened Azerbaijan: “We don’t want war, but if they oblige us, we will fight and win. We aren’t afraid of killers even if they are supported by the leading officials. But they don’t hear us again. Let them blame themselves”. Noting the traditional Armenian ability of killing helpless children, women, he said: “We do it time by time. If it is needed, we can do it one more time”. Serj ordered to organize special gathering of parliament and the gathering which was held on 5 September, adopted decision according to the order of the president. Every angry Armenian tried to “be calmed” with putting “their own views” in anti-Azerbaijani activity, Armenian mass media joined the movement of erupting poison to the enemy side. And the secretary of Armenian parliamentary fraction “Heritage” Zarui Postandyan decided to use moment for realization of the main aim introducing the law project to the parliament of Armenian Republic about recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh as independent state. By the way, the former president of Armenia, one of “founders” of hostility relations between two neighbor countries, villain Robert Kocharyan, also talked about recognition of so called “Nagorno-Karabakh Republic” by Hungary: “There is so great hate against Armenians in Azerbaijan that they forgot about moral borders. The order about forgiving the killer is the proof of all arguments of Karabakhians over independence”. How stupid a man can be to address the things which are typical for Armenia to Azerbaijan? You know, all despots of Azerbaijani nation – Andranik Ozanyan, Garagin Njde, Monte Melkonyan, Vazgen Sislyan, Varuja Karapetyan, Stepan Shaumyan and many other killers were declared as heroes in Armenia.
Leader of “Progress Party” Tigran Urikhanyan, following historical traditions of his ancestors-terrorists stated that he would award the person who would kill R. Safarov with 125 thousand dollars. In one word, the international Armenian terror organization ASALA threatened Azerbaijani diplomats and Azerbaijanis living abroad with killing.
Pro-Armenian international organizations, high rank politicians, leadership of supporting countries of Armenia including co-chair countries of OSCE Minsk Group which is imitating engagement in solution of Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict were also very worried of release of R. Safarov. European Council, European Parliament, State Department of USA, Ministries of Foreign Affairs of Russia and France, co-chairs of MG, president of the USA Barak Obama, head of European diplomacy Catrine Ashton, N. Bordjuzha – the general secretary of Organization of agreement about Collective Safety which hasn’t any relation with the underlined problem and others “were very surprised of” extradition and amnesty of R. Safarov. State Department of USA even required explanation from Hungarian and Azerbaijani sides, and European Parliament adopted resolution over the mentioned problem which was accepted by Azerbaijani society very negatively. Basing on what they can interfere in legal works of two sovereign countries? And why these organizations and officials didn’t react when Armenian armed forces killing innocent Azerbaijani children, women, and old people stayed without any punishment, when tens of Armenian offenders were given to Armenia and were met as heroes and were immediately released?
In one word, all procedures of extradition of R. Safarov from Hungary to Azerbaijan and his amnesty by the president Ilham Aliyev who used his constitutional proxy, were realized by leaders of political groups in EP, members of Euro-parliament, chairman of PA Euronest, members of PA Euronest of the countries of Western Partnership as it was mentioned at the letter of the chairman of delegation of Azerbaijani in PA Euronest, deputy Elkhan Suleymanov without any disturbing of law and basing on European Convention about extradition of condemned people which was adopted in European Council in 1983 and ratified by Hungary and Azerbaijan, also according to legislation of the both countries. So, all rest bustles is meaningless shout of Armenians and pro-Armenians for the gone train…
