“in UNESCO We were trying to blame us almost in vandalism, thought that we would start to destroy the churches. We agreed with them the route of arrival here Armenians. And they, and some countries related to them, very persistently wanted to come here. When We organized visits of foreign diplomats and foreign journalists to the territory liberated from occupation, when they saw that these churches and these graves were intact, the topic of arrival of UNESCO was removed from the agenda. The matter in the other, we invited them all these years. What answer we received ? “. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said this in an interview with Azerbaijani TV channels.
They said that UNESCO does not deal with political issues. As soon as the second Karabakh war ended, they began to persist about the arrival. We agreed on the routes and solved other questions. But it is known what happened during this time. They themselves They saw that we would not destroy anything, but when they arrive here, they will see the destroyed mosques, destroyed cemeteries, historical monuments, destroyed cities. They would be forced to say who did it. And they do not want to talk about it. All these factors, Plus, our active diplomatic work, created the conditions for the adoption of these realities in the world. I consider it great success. Because after this war, in fact, we turned all the forecasts, all the assumptions of Armenia and its patrons about what will happen in the event of the beginning of the war. Of course, I think that the world saw how much the Azerbaijani people are devoted to their land, how much is ready – both to victims, and to great risk, and this factor played a role. Because the reaction will coup Armenians on September 27, we could not even assume even. All this played a role. Therefore, respect for our people and the country has become incredibly increased, “said the President.
