UNESCO Should Reflect Facts Of Armenian Vandalism Against Azerbaijani Culture - MP
(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 6. UNESCO should reflect
in its reports the facts of Armenian vandalism against Azerbaijani
culture, Azerbaijani MP Afat Hasanova told Trend .
'Today, when we see the attitude of international community
towards the current conflicts in the world, we again become
witnesses of double standards. We were faced with silence of
international organizations about the facts of Armenian vandalism
during the 30-year period of occupation of our lands. UNESCO is one
of these organizations,' Hasanova said.
Hasanova noted that Azerbaijani people were subjected to ethnic
cleansing and genocide by Armenia. Along with this, the Azerbaijani
cultural heritage, which is part of the cultural heritage of
mankind, was subjected to genocide and vandalism during the period
of Armenian occupation. Historical monuments were destroyed,
mosques were desecrated in occupied territories.
'Despite the fact that Azerbaijan has repeatedly applied to
UNESCO, which promotes the preservation of world heritage and
culture, no response has been received. Azerbaijan has applied to
UNESCO in connection with the fact that a mission was sent to these
territories to investigate the facts of vandalism of Armenians
against our cultural heritage, however, unfortunately, this
organization has not taken any steps,' MP added.
Hasanova noted that today UNESCO continues to demonstrate double
standards and does not mention the facts of Armenian vandalism in
its reports.
'This injustice must be put to an end, UNESCO must reflect in
its reports the facts of Armenian vandalism against Azerbaijani
culture,' she emphasized.
