There are countries in this world, where violence has become an
idol. Turkey and Azerbaijan are two of those states. When they cannot
realize their vicious through violence, they start acting with lies,
intrigues and provocations, making a lot of noise around it.
Thus, the Turkish society welcomed the murder of Hrant Dink with
"We're All Ogun Samast" slogans, and the Azerbaijani authorities
proclaimed a national hero Ramil Safarov, the villain assassin.
In Turkey, and especially in Azerbaijan, women do note take any
essential part in the political life. But that does not mean that
women stay far from the governmental intrigues. The latest example
of such kind of women's activity is the "scientific" discussion
organized by the Turkish-Azerbaijani Womens' Union on March 27 in
Baku and dedicated to the "Genocide of Azerbaijani Turks Perpetrated
by Armenians" (allegedly on March 31, 1918).
According to Turkish television, politicians and scientists from
Turkey, Azerbaijan, the "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" and Iraq
took part in the conference. Most probably, the Iraqi participants
were Turkmens, who have pro-Turkish political orientation.
Participant of the conference Huseyn Avni Karsioglu, Turkish Ambassador
to Azerbaijan, demanded the historical events be studied and the
truth revealed to the world society. Others stated also referred
to the so-called Genocide of Khojalu and stated that this fact "is
neglected as well as other massacres committed by Armenians". The
conference participants came to conclusion that they must draw the
world's attention to those events, as the West does.
The results of the conference ended up in a joint declaration. "The
present Republic of Azerbaijan, as a lawful successor of the
People's Republic of Azerbaijan, formed in 1918-1920, shall punish
the perpetrators of the genocides and massacres of those years
and of the period after 1988. Armenia is a terrorist state, and
threatens the peace with its violent policy against Turks in eth
region and in the world. Without destroying that hotbed of terrorism,
without liberating the occupied territories of Azerbaijan and without
neutralizing Armenia's territorial claims of Turkey and Azerbaijan,
peace cannot be established in the region," says the declaration.
