Vahan Hovannisyan, member of Armenian Revolutionary Federation
(Dashnakcutiun) Bureau and vice speaker of the Armenian parliament,
said Azeri propaganda is shaped in three directions. "It is addressed
to international community, Armenian nation and Azeri people,"
Hovannisyan told a round table today. In his words, Azerbaijan says
quite contradicting things in these three layers which is a wonderful
tool in the hands of Armenia.
"In an address to Armenian nation, they want to frighten us that
their country is a strong oil state and that they will win in case
war resumes," Hovannisyan said. However, he said this does not create
defeat attitudes among the Armenian nation.
In an address to Azeri people, the propaganda tries to deliver the same
message and makes people understand that they will settle Karabakh
problem with the use of weaponry. Hovannisyan said the Azeri nation
does not share this view, saying the Azeries who live abroad do not
want their children to serve in the Azeri army on the fear that the
government may take "imprudent" steps.
Speaking about the messages to international community, Hovannisyan
pinpointed that Azerbaijan takes the image of poor, economically
isolated country where there are many hungry refugees. We must do
everything to focus the attention of the international community and
Azeri people to the reality, Hovannisyan said.
