Bad Neighbor

To best understand the obstacles to peace in Artsakh, one just needs to look at the contents found in the Azerbaijani education system, which not only reflect the Azerbaijani government’s general attitude toward the Armenian nation but also serve as a powerful force perpetuating the vicious cycle of Armenophobia among Azerbaijani youth.

  1. Fairley analyzed article, Milena.
    You mentioned:” ironically, throughout history Russians have oftentimes united with Turk to attack the Armenian population”. Unfortunately it is true as evidence over last 4 years revealed it.
    Unfortunately Russians have done the same to the Persian as well, as you mentioned that ” Russian soviet leaders did not attempt to change the name of Azerbaijan” which was suggested by a pan-Turk fascist political party named “Musavat”. Musavat means “just” in Persian which is at odd and inconsistent with the ideology and action taken by that Pan-Turk party against Persian and Armenian. Russian mischief against Persian did not confined with that action, they let Tallish and Tati to be victimized by Turk in Caucasus as well. Furthermore what the Russians did in collaboration with Turk throughout the central Asia against Persian was much worse . Samargand and Bukhara and many other major cities in central Asia which by all fair-minded historian considered as the cradle of Persian civilization were handed to Turk.
    It seems Russians underestimate the true nature of Turk, one day a pack of them from Crimea to Chechnya, to Dagestan to Taterstan by help of Turkey will attack Russia then she will find out who her real enemies are?!
