The topic of Western Azerbaijan is of strategic importance. Do you know who announced this? Minister of Education and Science of Azerbaijan Emin Amrullaev. Moreover, according to him, this issue plays a fundamental role in the matter of national identity and youth education.
He announced these thoughts within the framework of the third festival-conference on the theme of Western Azerbaijan taking place in Ordubad. Let me remind you that the Ministry of Education and Science of Azerbaijan is a state institution in the state structure, not a public one. It is a portfolio of the government of Azerbaijan. Here, the holder of that portfolio says that the topic of Western Azerbaijan is strategic and declares that the role of Ilham Aliyev is too big in that matter.
Moreover, that minister gives the example of the return of Azerbaijanis to “Eastern Zangezur”, saying that any goal can be realized in case of consistent work.
In other words, he considers the goal of the so-called “return” to “Western Azerbaijan” to be realizable, in case of consistent work.
The words of the member of the government of Azerbaijan are heard immediately after the words that Nikol Pashinyan voiced the day before that the subject of the settlement of Azerbaijanis in Armenia is fictitious.
Well, Nikol Pashinyan has the opportunity to instruct a member of his government, the minister of KGSMS, or at least the spokesperson of the ministry, to respond to his Azerbaijani colleague. Although, Nikol Pashinyan can “crush” only the opposition, and he can only entertain the government of Azerbaijan.
