Baku, Azerbaijan, Feb. 16

By Matanat Nasibova - Trend:

There can be several versions regarding certain interest in stirring up a conflict between Azerbaijanis and Chechens, Jambulat Umarov, the minister of National Policy, External Relations and Information Issues of Russia’s Chechen Republic, told Trend Feb. 16.

He was commenting on the incident that occurred in the cafe “Neolit” in Moscow.

He said that this incident is an attempt to break up two influential fraternal communities who live in Russia, and on this basis to incite clashes on interethnic grounds.

“We won’t allow this,” he noted. “I would like to specifically say to the Azerbaijani and Chechen peoples that we will never allow the fraternity between our people to collapse because of the fights of criminal structures and primitive actions of hooligans. This fraternity was built literally brick by brick by our noble ancestors. We are the heirs of this great civilization and great culture, fraternal, friendly relations between our peoples who live in a single, comfortable and warm home called the Caucasus.”

The minister also addressed a message to the entire Azerbaijani people.

“I would like to say to the Azerbaijani people that we will never allow any clashes, and all those responsible for this incident will be punished,” he noted. “Everyone who tries to insult the Azerbaijani people, or insult the Chechen people on behalf of the Azerbaijanis, will be punished. We agreed on this with our Azerbaijani brothers long ago, and we will prevent all illegal actions.”

The minister noted that crime and hooliganism will never stand in the way of the development and good neighborliness of the two fraternal peoples of Azerbaijan and Chechen Republic.
