Question:
Please comment the statement of the President of Azerbaijan during the ceremony dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the "Yeni Azerbaijan" party, claiming that "Armenia is an outpost run from abroad, a territory artificially created on ancient Azerbaijani lands" and that " the Armenian lobby is our main enemy."

Answer:
With such a racist ideology, such unbridled distortion of history and ridiculous territorial claims towards the neighboring states, Azerbaijan could have had a chance to survive only in the early middle ages. However, Azerbaijan first appeared on the political map only in 1918.

Baku has not yet perceived, that the power of a modern state is founded on the love towards its people and not on the pathologic hatred towards the indigenous peoples of the region and their historical and cultural heritage.
