ANTI-ARMENIAN TENSIONS INSIDE AZERI COMMUNITY OF MOSCOW PROVOKED BY
TURKISH LOBBY

MOSCOW, NOVEMBER 16. ARMINFO. The present anti-Armenian tensions
inside the Azeri community of Moscow are being inspired by the Turkish
political lobby, says the president of the Armenian National Club
Miabanutyun Smbat Karakhanyan.

Now they are trying to play off the Moscow Azeris with the Moscow
Armenians and to set the Russian authorities especially Pres. Putin
against the Russia-based Armenian community.

To remind, some 300 Moscow Azeris held Monday a sanctioned rally in
the center of Moscow. Many of them came in special buses. They
demanded that the Russian authorities change their attitude towards
their “false” strategic partner Armenia and turn their eyes towards
“honest” Azerbaijan. Nov 20 they are planning to rally in front of the
Armenian Embassy in Moscow.

Karakhanyan says that pressurized from abroad certain Azeri
politicians are plotting regional destabilization and stoppage of the
Karabakh conflict settlement talks.

The next step, according to Karakhanyan, will be the return of Azeri
refugees to their homes first as peaceful civil marches and then as
bloody clashes. In case of war resumption Azerbaijan will try to break
through Armenia’s territory to Nakhichevan to create a direct passage
towards Turkey.
