The trial of former heads of Nagorno Karabakh is an act of personal revenge, said Konstantin Zatulin, a member of the Russian State Duma, "trial in Baku. What will the desire of revenge lead to the round table?
"We are in Russia, I am a member of the Russian State Duma, how should we treat it? Of course, as a reprisal ... I think this is a personal account against the Nagorno Karabakh leadership. All these people have been partners of the Azerbaijani leaderships for many years when it came to the general process of peaceful settlement within the Minsk Group, which today they do not want to accept in Azerbaijan or other negotiation formats. "Eadaily:According to Armenpress, Zatulin said.
According to him, "this trial reflects the general desire of the Azerbaijani leadership, to continue to celebrate the victory not only towards the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh and Nagorno-Karabakh in general."
"Because it is accompanied by not only requirements and arrests and trials, but also by other actions. Free interpretation of history, according to which there is no room for Armenians not only in Nagorno Karabakh, but also throughout the Caucasus. The fact that today the attempt is being made to rewrite the cultural history. All of us, the well-known historical monuments are the 5th century monasteries, such as Amaras. Or, say, 12th century, as Gandzasar or Dadivank, are declared Albanians. Like all historical and cultural monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh, which are not only present in the territory of the Azerbaijanis, but also did not exist as a nation in nature. "They have not yet shaped," said Zatulin.
Of course, according to him, Azeris have lived with hundreds of years or next to Armenians or along with this area, "but not earlier than Armenians." According to the MP, this is obvious to everyone, except the Azerbaijani leadership.
"All this is accompanied by the dear ridicule for the people of Nagorno Karabakh. Destruction of some symbolic monuments. Roofs of the National Assembly or monuments of persons in the territory of Nagorno Karabakh. All this is allegedly aimed at integrating Nagorno Karabakh to the cultural, ethnic, national and state space possible as soon as possible. "How can we return him to this area?"
Earlier, the MP noted that former NKR Presidents Arkady Ghukasyan and Bako Sahakyan, as well as former NKR Minister of State Ruben Vardanyan, who refused Russian citizenship to share the fate of the "military" crimes initiated on April 1391, from 1722 to October 1301.
