Although the Nagorno-Karabah conflict is also a problem of the
international community, only Azerbaijan is actively trying to find
a solution to the problem, Lithuanian public figures engaged in the
problem of Nagorno-Karabakh believe.
"Only the [Azerbaijani] government can find the way out. If one relies
on the EU, it can continue forever," Richardas Lapaytis, Lithuanian
socio-political newspaper editor, said.
Lapaytis, together with Imantas Melyanas, advisor to the chairman of
the Economy Committee of Lithuania, was on a five-day visit to Baku
to continue his work on the investigation of the Khojali genocide
and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
Now, the information war is very important for bringing the facts
of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict to the attention of the world
community, Melyanas said.
"Not bullets but words are important today," Melyanas, author of
numerous publications on the problems of the Caucasus region, said.
Without knowing the details of the conflicts, European politicians
fall under the influence of Armenian propaganda, he said. When the
society reaches understanding, politicians, including those who act
consciously will not be able to continue their game.
"The international law is on Azerbaijan’s side," he said.
Lapaytis shared his memories that in the 1990’s years in Lithuania
no one covered the tragedy in Khojali. Armenian sources wrote that
only a few people were killed.
