Turkey condemns the Khojali Tragedy, which Armenians committed and wants peace in the region.
“Armenians has claimed about massacre since 1914. If a lot of nations lived in peace with Ottoman Turks at that time, how could only Armenians be massacred,’’ Kilich added.
“Khojali massacre is not a reason but result,” historian Nasiman Yaqublu said at the conference.
Khojali massacre is a result of the Armenians policy, which ages 2 centuries.
As one of the witnesses, Yagublu mentioned historical facts and spoke about Armenians’ arrival to Caucasus. “There is no place of residence with Armenian name in the maps dating either in 18th or in 19th century,” Yaqublu said.
“The 150th anniversary of Armenians’ arrival in Caucasus was celebrated within the Soviet Union in 1978 and a monument was erected on this occasion. However, later they destroyed that monument in order to deny the fact,” Yagublu said.
Publisher of the first book about Khojali tragedy — ’Khojali massacre’, Yaqublu indicated the Armenian brutality, demonstrating documents about old people and children died in Khojali.
