    VLADIMIR KARAPETIAN: AZERBAIJAN DOES EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO CONCEAL TRACES OF ITS VANDALISM

    YEREVAN, AUGUST 31, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. It is not for the
    first time that the Azerbaijani side puts obstacles for an observer
    muission to visit Nakhijevan, the acting head of the RA MFA Press
    and Information Department Vladimir Karapetian said. "Azerbaijan
    does everything possible to conceal the traces of its vandalism and
    to distract the international community's attention from an attempt
    (unfortunately, a successful one) to destroy the spiritual and cultural
    samples of the Armenians," he pointed out, while commenting, at the
    request of Public Television's Haylur information program, on the
    fact that Azerbaijan did not allow the Europarliament's monitoring
    delegation to go to Nakhijevan in order to examine the reasons for the
    destruction of Armenian monuments in Hin Jugha. In his opinion, the
    absurd accusations regarding the fires pursue one purpose: to conceal
    the barbarian actions committed in Nakhijevan under an atificial
    uproar. He reminded that many foreign experts and international
    reporters confirmed that the Azerbaijani government artitrarily
    destroyed over 2,000 gravestones. "Those guilty for this crime must
    be held accountable," he stated. "This terrible action, as well as the
    recent anti-Armenian propaganda of Azerbaijan show that Azerbaijan has
    not changed neither its methods nor its intention. In such a situation,
    it is not surprising that the Azerbaijani side creates obstacles in
    connection with the visit of Europarliament's fact-finding mission,"
    V. Karapetian stated. Nevertheless, he expressed confidence that the
    international community will be consistent in its actions to register
    and condemn the destruction of Armenian cultural values in Nakhijevan.
