ArmInfo.Ankara's statement regarding Khojaly events reminiscent of the situation, as if Hitler had expressed his solidarity with his ally Mussolini, the Vice President of the Armenian Parliament Eduard Sharmazanov said in an interview with ArmInfo in response to condolences of Turkish President to Azerbaijani colleague on Khojaly events.
"It turns out that one expresses support to another. Instead of the so condole and condemnation, it would be better if the Turkish authorities got acquainted to the interview of former Azerbaijani President Ayaz Mutalibov, in which he assured that Armenians are not involved in the events in Khojaly", summed up the Vice President.
To note, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan expressed his condolences to the people of Azerbaijan regarding the 24th anniversary of the Khojaly events. "We honor the memory of victims of Khojaly tragedy and wish patience to Azerbaijani people", said Erdogan.
The Armenian community of experts believes the untwisted by the Baku ideologists "genocide" of Azerbaijanis in Khojalu to be a myth created by Heydar Aliyev and taken up heir Aliyev Jr. in order to divert international attention from the mass riots and massacres of Armenians in Sumgait, Baku, Kirovabad, and many other settlements in Azerbaijan, the monstrous massacre of old men, women and children in the Karabakh village of Maragha, where in April 1992, the units of the invading Azerbaijani regular army brutally killed about 100 civilians, and overall brutality of the Azerbaijani armed forces in the course of large-scale military adventure against the Artshakh Republic, which finished with total failure of Baku. At the same time Baku propagandists are trying hard to ignore well-known facts and evidences, including the assessment of some of the former high-ranking officials of Azerbaijan, human rights defenders, journalists and residents of Khojaly on the above events, denying the false official version. In other words, the tragic events in Khojaly became a political propaganda capital of the official Baku.
