Armenia should resist Azeri propagandaOctober 16, 2007 - 16:43 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Opposition to Azeri propaganda is actually one of important fields and we should mobilize efforts to unite the Foreign Ministry, Diasporan organizations and individuals for anti-Azeri propaganda," Armenian Ambassador to Lebanon, Vahan Ter-Ghevondian said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net "The point is that since 1988 Azerbaijan has been trying to mislead the Islam word and represent the Karabakh issue as a religious conflict, picturing Armenians as "fanatics" and "terrorists", who fight against kind and peaceful Muslims. Baku's activities resulted in adoption of several anti-Armenian resolutions by thew OIC and other international organizations, which made one-sided decisions through unawareness. Some Arab states, including the Saudi Arabia and Pakistan do not establish diplomatic relations with Armenia. Hence, it's essential to prepare materials, representing the Karabakh problem as the issue of self-determination (like the Palestinian one) and circulate them in Middle East and Muslim world. Armenia should be represented as a peaceful and tolerant state to Islamic countries, whose cultural heritage is respected. It would be useful to mention about reconstruction of the Blue Mosque in Yerevan and a mosque in Shushi, protection of Turkmen cemetery in Argavand. Such materials if showed by Al Jazeera and other TV Channels may change attitude about Armenia. Armenian organizations and individuals from Diaspora, who achieved success in politics and business, can make a big contribution to the mission," he said.
