“It is inappropriate for a president to make such statements. It
is strange that the international community has not yet responded
to this statement, with heads of European organizations constantly
stressing the impermissibility of provocative statements. Nevertheless,
Azerbaijan makes such statements at the highest level,” member of RPA
parliamentary faction Armen Mkhitaryan told Panorama.am, commenting
upon the statement by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev calling
Armenians fascists.
The parliamentarian expressed bewilderment that Azerbaijan sows seeds
of hatred towards Armenians in schools and at the same time calls
Armenians fascists.
“Such statements by the Azerbaijani leader draw the conflicting
sides farther away from peaceful resolution of the conflict,”
stressed Mkhitaryan.
