BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 1. The Western
Azerbaijan Community strongly condemns and rejects the position of
UNESCO representative Krista Pikkat regarding the proposed mission
to Azerbaijan, based on Armenia's claims about cultural monuments
within the country, the community said in a statement, Trend reports.
"It is unacceptable for a UNESCO representative to entertain
unfounded claims from Armenia instead of clarifying why repeated
requests to UNESCO to address the mass destruction of Azerbaijani
cultural heritage in formerly occupied territories and in Armenia
remain unanswered.
Discrimination by UNESCO against the Azerbaijani people based on
religious and ethnic grounds demonstrates that this organization
has become an instrument of anti-Azerbaijani policy in the hands of
France.
We demand that UNESCO put an end to the slander and
discrimination against Azerbaijan and our people and finally
fulfill its duty regarding the destruction of Azerbaijani cultural
heritage by Armenia, including sending a special monitoring mission
to this country," the statement reads.
