Politicians, who spread ideas about Russia’s role in “Karabakh’s loss” and that Russia is allegedly behind the Armenians, “scare the Azerbaijanis and are engaged in sabotage,” Azerbaijan’s former president Ayaz Mutallibov told the Azerbaijani information portal Avrasiya.org stating that if Azerbaijan “builds the right politics,” the Russians “will be on its side,” which will result in “peaceful resolution of the problems in Karabakh.”

Mutallibov remembered that as a result of the “right politics,” “Operation Ring” was organized, during which inhabitants of villages throughout the whole perimeter of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast – ethnic Armenians – were deported under the pretext of “expulsion of Armenian militants.”

Regarding the traditional question for Ayaz Mutallibov about the Aghdam events, he noted that the tragedy could have been avoided, if there was no battle for power, which disturbed him.

“The help was not sent to Khojaly, but to another direction. Khojaly was left without any help. Unfortunately, fighting for power, they had left the front without leadership,” Mutallibov stated.

He also answered to the question regarding the videos taped by Chingiz Mustafayev. The videos “caused unnecessary dispute” in the Azerbaijani society again.

“I am aware of Chingiz’s videos. They prove that our traitors were among the participants of the Khojaly massacre,” he said adding that he had no opportunity “to analyze comprehensively Chigiz’s materials.”

In the former president’s opinion, it is a “betrayal of national interests.” Summing up, Ayaz Mutallibov said: “I believe the war will start soon.”
