BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 4
By Jeila Aliyeva - Trend:
Unlike Hitler, Armenia was able to create a mono-ethnic country, destroy the Azerbaijani architecture and rename all cities and villages into Armenian names, Head of the Public and Political Affairs Department of the Presidential Administration, Fuad Akhundov told Trend.
"People, architecture, toponymy and history were ethnically cleansed in Armenia," Akhundov said, adding that all the history written by Armenia is false. They changed the Christian architecture and all the Albanian churches in their own way.
He added that Armenia is surrounded by four multi-ethnic states, but it is separated by a watershed line, within which only Armenians live.
"Armenia has territorial claims to three of the four neighboring countries," he added.
Also, commenting on the fact that Armenia recalled its Ambassador from Israel, Akhundov noted that the main reason for this is the success of the Azerbaijani army on the front line, as well as Armenia's inability to accept criticism.
"We are a defending party and, according to article 51 of the UN Charter, we have the full right to self-defense, including to acquire weapons from other countries, as well as to invite any third country to help in order to free ourselves from occupation," he added.
"The sale of weapons by Israel to Azerbaijan is not a secret and is absolutely legal, and if someone does not like it, it is their own business," Akhundov said.
