Armenian journalists addressed an open letter to the editors of the
Big Illustrated Geography Encyclopedia with a request to revise the
information printed in the book.
“The encyclopedia which is sold in Armenian bookstores says that
Armenian and Azerbaijani languages are primary in Armenia while the
religions are Orthodox and Islam (Shiite). Moreover, it says that
Artsakh is mentioned as ‘historical territory of Azerbaijan, mostly
inhabited by Armenians,” Ankakh magazine editor Varduhi Ishkhanyan
said.
