The Azerbaijani state media distort Iran’s history, says an article
published on Iranian website Arannews.ir.

A program on Azerbaijan’s AzTv presented the territories populated
by Turkish-speaking Iranian Azeris as “Southern Azerbaijan,” says
the article.

Azerbaijan’s state television distorts the history, saying that
after the signing of the treaties of Gulistan and Turkmenchay,
the “historical Azerbaijan” was allegedly divided into two parts:
“Northern Azerbaijan” and “Southern Azerbaijan,” says the article.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
