Historical center of Iravan destroyed by Armenians was historical heritage of Azerbaijani people - President Ilham Aliyev

BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 24. The historical center of Iravan destroyed by Armenians was the historical heritage of the Azerbaijani people, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said at a meeting with intellectuals from Western Azerbaijan, Trend reports.

"Look at other countries of the South Caucasus – Azerbaijan, Georgia, our cities, most of our cities have historical sites and historical centers – whether it is Baku, Ganja, Nakhchivan, Sheki, Gabala or any other city. How can it be possible that there is no historical center in Iravan? Let them answer this straightforward question. The answer is clear as day. This historical center was the historical heritage of the Azerbaijani people, which they have destroyed. Under the guise of urban development, they have destroyed all our historical buildings, including the Iravan Castle and the Sardar Palace. So all this should be exposed. In other words, apart from the political and legal side of any issue, the historical side of it is also important. Therefore, our work should be based on this history.

As for the legal side, we should think together and international lawyers should be involved. The state of Azerbaijan will help here as well. They will show us at the international level how we could realize this desire and right of return," President Ilham Aliyev said.
