It’s hard to take Azerbaijan’s efforts for the Armenian Genocide denial seriously, head of the department of Turkey at the RA Academy of Sciences, Doctor Ruben Safrastyan stated in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net. “As usual, those who falsify the historical facts, more trouble each other then help and in this case the fact of falsification become more obvious. Besides, one should not forget how roughly the Azerbaijani propaganda machine works” he remarked.
At that he said Azerbaijan would prefer to have Turkey only as the mediator in the Karabakh problem settlement, since this state would not spare effort to weaken the “Armenian factor” in the region. “Fortunately, Turkey’s participation is impossible. I should also add that assurance in “fraternal friendship” is exaggerated, since each party has its owns interests. Simply their opinions coincide on the “Armenian factor” in the region” he underscored.
