    NKR MFA: THE AZERBAIJANI MASS MEDIA CONTINUE PRACTICING FORGERIES

    The Azerbaijani mass media have once again lost their way in broad
    daylight, trying to depict the Karabakh party in an unfavourable
    light. During a day, the woman, who was killed on December 20, 2009
    on the NKR and Azerbaijani armed forces' contact-line first by an
    "Armenian" serviceman, then, as it was found out, by an Azerbaijani
    soldier, turned from an "Armenian woman" into an Azerbaijani one.

    Moreover, a photo of a Georgian woman made in August 2008 during the
    war in South Ossetia was attached to the information.

    The Azerbaijani mass media have practiced forgeries in their
    anti-Armenian propaganda for a long time. This was fixed not only
    by the Karabakh party. The Moscow edition New Region notes that the
    Azerbaijani mass media have, at least, three times used forgeries for
    the last three months, applying photomaterials of various countries
    for "proving the facts of the Armenian aggression". Besides the
    abovementioned forgery of the Azerbaijani Agency Vesti.az related to
    the killed woman, the edition notes as an example the distribution
    of a photo of a Georgian soldier killed in August 2008 "to confirm"
    the Karabakh party's losses allegedly taken place as a result of the
    NKR Defense Army units' attacking the Azerbaijani positions. In fact,
    everything was exactly the contrary.

    Besides, the Russian edition unmasked Trend Azerbaijani information
    agency, which had informed of the completion of a documentary about
    the Karabakh conflict, attaching a photo of alleged "victims of the
    Armenian aggression", which, in fact, turned out to be a photo of
    deceased citizens of Kosovo taken from a Canadian francophone website.

    This forgery related to the tragic events in Khojaly and placed at some
    Azerbaijani websites, including the one of the basic anti-Armenian
    misinformation center of the Heydar Aliyev Fund (www.azerbaijan.az),
    the leader of which is the Azerbaijani President's wife, was earlier
    diclosed by the NKR Foreign Ministry.

    We have to state once more that against the background of the
    proceeding meetings of the Armenian and Azerbaijani Presidents and
    the optimistic statements of the international mediators on certain
    progress in the Karabakh conflict settlement process, official Baku
    and its improvised mass media continue their aggressive information
    war against the RA and NKR, using all the means for introducing the
    Armenian parties as the misdeeds' actors and for injecting a new
    portion of Armenian-hatred poison into the international community's
    and their own people's mind.

    Unfortunately, this destructive policy of official Baku isn't properly
    assessed by corresponding international structures, which is fraught
    with nullifying the multiyear peacemaking efforts.

    "Democratic" Azerbaijan "integrating" into the West and its
    "independent" mass media should finally realize that freedom of speech
    is not freedom of misinformation.

    We hope that in the coming year, the international community will
    take the counterproductive actions of the Azerbaijani authorities
    more seriously.
