The article considers Aznavour’s using false statements, straining already tense relations and impeding the complicated situation wrong.
“You know well that Azerbaijan does not pose a threat to Armenia. That is Armenia which occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijani territories by military means. If so, how can you write that not a week passed since a 20-year-old soldier’s being killed on the line of contact between Azerbaijan and Nagorno-Karabakh? Why don’t you specify that in most cases, this is an Azerbaijani soldier who is killed by Russian-Armenian troops that occupied Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent districts of Azerbaijan where Armenians have never lived? Why don’t you say that Armenia conducted ethnic cleansing in occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region? Didn’t your relatives cold-bloodedly kill 800 Azerbaijani civilians, including women, children and the elderly people in Khojaly town in February 1992? Mr. Aznavour, how can you explain the fact that 250,000 Azerbaijanis were expelled from Armenia in 1988, not an Azerbaijani can live in Armenia, while 40,000 Armenians are peacefully living in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan? I urge you not to further aggravate the situation and slander anyone,” said the article.
