Baku. Zaur Nurmammadov-APA. Ukrainian "Saga" Tourist Company considers
Nagorno Karabakh as a part of Armenia, APA reports.

Nagorno Karabakh has been shown as a part of Armenia in "Armenia"
section of website Moreover, "Armenian History" section
covers distorted information about 1988-Sumgait Massacres.The text
says that tensity in Nagorno Karabakh made nationalist Azerbaijanis
commit massacres in Sumgait. The material says that a great part
of Armenian lands, as well as Agri Mountain is placed in Turkey and
Yerevan claims to return back these lands. The authors touched upon
developments occurred during Ottoman Empire in 1915. They think that
"genocide" was committed against Armenians in Turkey in 1915. "Heads
of Young Turks Movement considered that Armenians would take Russia’s
side during war because of Christianity and therefore they began to
kill and deport Armenians. Turks killed about 1-2 million Armenians
as a result of war", the material says. It is interesting that there
is not any section on Azerbaijan in the website of the tourist company.

Khazar Ibrahim, Spokesman for Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry told APA
that Azerbaijani Embassy in Ukraine would be instructed to investigate
the misunderstanding on presentation of Nagorno Karabakh as a part of
Armenia in Ukrainian "Saga" Tourist Company. He added that they would
demand to take out false materials on Azerbaijan from the website.
