A statement by the Department of Information and Public Affairs at
the RA Defense Ministry reads:

"Recently the recurrent Azerbaijani &’movie’ about Khojaly appeared
in the Internet. Here the &’hospitable and peaceful’ Azerbaijanis
are telling about the &’tragedy’ of Khojaly. In this recurrent
Azerbaijani &’movie’, which is based on obvious falsehood, there are
several distorted facts and untrue information. The quotations from
Zori Balayan’s book are obscene lies. Some months ago Zori Balayan
himself made an announcement about this, stating that he has never
written a book like that.

It is stated in the &’movie’ that the residents, who had fled from
Khojaly, were shot near the Armenian Nakhijevanik village. This
fact also does not meet the reality, because in February, 1992 the
village of Nakhijevanik, which is situated around Aghdam, was not
under the Armenian Armed Forces. The &’movie’ ends with a touching,
heart-breaking music and with the photos of these so called victims and
witnesses of the occurrence. It takes only 1-2 minutes to learn that
one is a photo of a wounded Armenian child, which has been published
in the 5th of December, 1991 issue of the &’Ð~ZомÑ~A&#xD 0;¾Ð¼Ð¾Ð"Ð µÑ~F
Ð~ZÑ~CзÐ& #xB1;аÑ~Aа’ (&’Komsomolets Kuzbasa’) newspaper. And the article
was titled &’Ð"оÐ"Ð&# xB3;аÑ~O доÑ~@оР³Ð° в ЭÑ~@ÐºÐµÑ ~G’ (&’The long
way to Erkech’). The electronic version of the abovementioned article
can be found on the following website:

It only remains to advise the staff of the Azerbaijani agitprop to be
more attentive and make such falsifications, which are not so obvious
and so easy-to-uncover."
