YEREVAN, APRIL 27, ARMENPRESS. In a talk with the reporter of
Azerbaijani ANS TV channel Azerbaijani writer Eduard Bagirov, resident
in Russia, confirmed his conviction on recognizing the Armenian
Genocide. On the 98th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide the
Azerbaijani writer expressed his condolences to the Armenian people
for the victims of the Genocide in his internet blog. “On behalf of
reasonable Azerbaijanis living in Moscow, I present my condolences to
the Armenian people on the anniversary of the Genocide committed in
Turkey against them in 1915,” he wrote.
As ”Armenpress” reports responding the question if he wished to
recognize the Armenian Genocide by expressing condolences to the
Armenians, Eduard Bagirov underscored; “To my mind, genocide is
murdering people for their national identity. Hitler committed such
genocide against the Jews. One and a half million Armenians were
killed for being Armenian in 1915. I share the Armenians’ grief of
that genocide.”
