ORBELI'S MYSTERY UNEARTHED
Azerbaijan
has found a mine planted under the system of Armenian falsifications
When
a department head at the Azerbaijani Presidential Administration, Fuad Axundov,
said that he had found in the archives of St. Petersburg the book
"Inscriptions and Gandzasar and Havotsptuk" by the Russian Soviet
historian I. Orbeli, it caused great repercussions in the historical circles of
our region. After all, it was a book, the entire edition of which was believed
to have been destroyed in 1919, and the author of this work later stopped
dealing with this subject and became a prominent scientist in a completely
different field.
But a real sensation
was caused by the preliminary result of the study of this work made public by
Axundov himself at the international conference "Historical and Cultural
Heritage of Ethnic Groups of Caucasian Albania in the Context of Human
Rights" held on 10 June this year in Baku. It turned out that Orbeli's
book was another mine planted in the early 20th century under the centuries-old
system of Armenian falsifications of history. Another reason for the
disappointment of falsifiers who misled their own people was the exposure of
two anti-Azerbaijani films presented recently in Yerevan.
We asked the author of
these revelations, a department head at the Azerbaijani Presidential
Admini-stration, Fuad AXUNDOV, to tell us about details of what is happening.
