ACCORDING TO SPOKESMAN OF RA MINISTRY OF DEFENSE, TO CONSIDER ARMENIA
AS THE TERRITORY OF HISTORIC AZERBAIJAN IS THE OPINION OF A MAN
UNCONVERSANT WITH HISTORY

YEREVAN, August 11 (Noyan Tapan). “It is certainly not harmful to
dream, and let the Spokesman of the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan
dream,” said Seiran Shahsuvarian, Spokesman of the RA Ministry of
Defense, during his meeting with journalists, answering the question
of journalists about the statement made by the Spokesman of the
Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan recently. To recap, Spokesman of the
Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan Ramiz Melikov said that “today’s
Armenia has been formed on the historic lands of Azerbaijan and
expressed an opinion that there will be no state named Armenia in the
territory of the South Caucasus during upcoming 25-30 years. “I am
deeply convinced that it is the opinion of a man unconversant with
history, literature, cartography, who announces publicly that these
are Azeri lands, rather than the opinion of the Minister of Defense of
Azerbaijan, the government and moreover the President of Azerbaijan.”
During a press briefing held in the village of Teg of the Goris region
Seiran Shahsuvarian added: “The Azeris didn’t have caves, rocks of
Goris, and I think they will never have them.” He also expressed an
opinion that the Minister of Defense of Azerbaijan “should think a
little of his Spokesman and come to conclusions.”
