ASALA has not threatened to Azerbaijani Embassy in Budapest

"We categorically deny the misinformation spread by the Azerbaijani authorities that our organization has sent threatening letters to their embassy in  Budapest," says the Refutation Statement disseminated by The Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia (ASALA) on September 11, 2012.

Further in the statement: "As an organization, the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia (ASALA) has never engaged into any activity concerning the colonial and expansionist policy of Azerbaijan, and consequently we deny such misleading, fake news and declarations in our name.

The Republic of Azerbaijan has turned into a hereditary, despotic and royal-like regime by the "Aliev Dynasty" which spreads such childish misinformation in a desperate attempt to divert the international public attention that was caused by the immoral act of pardoning of the sentenced killer Ramil Safarov.

The World has witnessed how the Army of the heroic people of Artsakh (Mountainous Karabakh) equipped with braveness and morality, in the name of Homeland, Freedom and Independence, by themselves and without any external support, managed to completely destroy Aliyev's timid mercenaries, who as it seems are only capable of cowardly murdering  sleeping Armenian soldiers with an axe, thus becoming Aliyev Dynasty's "typical hero" thereby manifesting to the entire world the Azerbaijani interpretation of Justice and International Law.


The liberation of the western portion of Armenia was and remains the main purpose of the Armenian Diaspora and, naturally, ASALA's main mission. As such we do not divert from our mission. Turkey cannot avoid the judgment of history for the annihilation of millions of innocent Armenians. Turkey cannot establish a state over the relics of a massacred people.

The renaissance of the people of the region knocks the door to Ankara's colonial regime. There is no doubt that Armenian and Kurdish people will restore their denied rights and liberate their Homelands from the Turkish occupation.

Victory to the Armenian people!

Justice to all people deprived of their rights!"

Earlier Azerbaijani Mass Media reported that ASALA allegedly sent threatening letters to the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Hungary after extradition of Azerbaijani officer Ramil Safarov, who was sentenced to life in prison for murdering Armenian officer in Budapest.

Nikol Pashinyan re-appointed as Armenian prime minister after decisive June election victory

Armenia president, Vahagn Khachaturyan has re-appointed Nikol Pashinyan as Armenian prime minister, after the decisive victory of his Civil Contract party in parliamentary elections in June. During a ceremony at the Presidential Palace in Yerevan, President Khachaturyan signed a decree on the appointment of Nikol Pashinyan as Prime Minister of the Republic. President Vahagn Khachaturyan said in short remarks: It is a great honor for me to sign a decree on appointing you to the post of Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia, for which I received a proposal from the political majority in the National Assembly, under Article 149 of the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia. I sincerely congratulate you, I wish you great patience, endurance, and determination to lead us in these difficult times, to lead the country to the future, a prosperous future. Nikol Pashinyan thanked the president and added,  I must say honestly that in 2018, when I assumed the post of Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia as a result of the People's, non-violent, velvet revolution, it would have been difficult to predict that we would go down such a path and I think it would have been difficult to predict that we would be able to overcome this path. But we are where we are, and I think that the key role and significance in all this is unequivocally and undoubtedly the people of the Republic of Armenia, who, after all, have demonstrated special expressions of state consciousness and state-centeredness throughout this period. And of course, this is a great obligation and commitment. Of course, the Government will be formed in the near future and all members of the Government, including me, will already enshrine our obligations to our people in the text of the oath.  In the meantime Ruben Rubinyan has been elected Speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia, following a secret vote of MPs. He is a 36-year-old MP from the ruling Civil Contract party, who was one of the deputy speakers in the previous parliament and, until recently, was the special representative in the negotiations on the normalization of relations with Turkey.

Thursday Interview: Murad Muradov

Thursday Interview: Murad Muradov

Today, commonspace.eu starts a new regular weekly series. THURSDAY INTERVIEW, conducted by Lauri Nikulainen, will host  persons who are thinkers, opinion shapers, and implementors in their countries and spheres. We start the series with an interview with Murad Muradov, a leading person in Azerbaijan's think tank community. He is also the first co-chair of the Action Committee for a new Armenian-Azerbaijani Dialogue. Last September he made history by being the first Azerbaijani civil society activist to visit Armenia after the 44 day war, and the start of the peace process. Speaking about this visit Murad Muradov said: "My experience was largely positive. My negative expectations luckily didn’t play out. The discussions were respectful, the panel format bringing together experts from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey was particularly valuable during the NATO Rose-Roth Seminar in Yerevan, and media coverage, while varied in tone, remained largely constructive. Some media outlets though attempted to represent me as more of a government mouthpiece than an independent expert, which was totally misleading.  Overall, I see these initiatives as important steps in rebuilding trust and normalising professional engagement. The fact that soon a larger Azerbaijani civil society visits to Armenia followed, reinforces the sense that this process is moving in the right direction."
