"There are facts on Armenians’ archeological excavations in the
Azerbaijani region of Aghdam. We often hear Armenians’ statements
that our monuments belong to Armenia culture and architecture. We are
struggling against such cases," Culture and Tourism Minister Abulfaz
Garayev told journalists, APA reports.
The minister underlined that fighting against these negative cases
is not satisfactory.
"We express our protest to different organizations. But we have no tool
of pressure to prevent these actions in Aghdam or Western Azerbaijan,"
the minister said.
Garayev also said that necessary facts about the destruction of
cultural heritage in the Armenian-occupied Azerbaijani territories
have been gathered.
"We shall present these facts to the UNESCO’s fact-finding mission
to the region. We should prove that cultural heritage of Azerbaijani
people has been destroyed by Armenian invaders," he underscored.
