Website Publika.az published story by Shamil Sadig "Armenian child" which most likely takes place in Russia during the rehearsal of an evening devoted to Aghdam events that took place in 1992. Under the leadership of Azerbaijan film director with the alias "Lamakan" children learn poems about Khojalu and the anthem of Azerbaijan, but the progress goes on slowly, because according to the director, "children do not feel the essence of tragedy."

After another session in the House of Culture, when the director was going to leave, a group of primary school pupils accompanied by a teacher of the Russian language enters the hall. A Blonde girl approaches the director and asks: "Mister, are you Armenian?"

The director describes how outraged and insulted he was by this question, but, patting the head of the girl answered that he was not an Armenian, he was Azerbaijani. He told to his friends, who were present during this incident, that if there was a young man instead of that small girl he would have hit that man’s head against the wall and would have shown what an Armenian is.

According to the story, after a while, this girl comes to him again and allegedly says: "You know, you are an enemy to us. Your grandfathers killed our grandparents. My mom tells me that I should not be friends with the Turks, that they are our eternal enemies." Then it is described how a grown man holds polemics with a baby and begins to prove her that the Armenians are to be blamed in Khojalu events. Russian language teacher intervenes and takes the child away from the Azerbaijanis.
