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.

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."
