ARMENIANS KILLED GERMANS IN AZERBAIJAN, RESEARCH SUGGESTS
Professor Abbas Seyidov from the Institute of Archeology and Ethnography of the Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences announced in a report summarizing his many years research that hundreds of German families who founded the town of Elenendorf (now Khanlar) at that time fell victims to the terrorists of the Armenian nationalist party Dashnaktsutyun. The research suggests the dashnak (the party’s members) gangsters backed by their patrons in Moscow killed Germans in response to their refusal to give them money. The persecution and killing of Germans living in Khanlar continued until 1941, when 1187 of them were sent into exile in Kazakhstan and Siberia. After that, according to the report, the Armenians warmed themselves into German families, and at last, occupied the town.
Professor Eva-Maria Auch from the University of Bonn, Germany stressed the importance of studying the Dashnaktsutyun party’s archives kept in Tbilisi, Georgia, “There is a need investigate the genocide committed by Armenians against Germans, and publish the information gathered in the form of a book in German, English, Russian and Azeri languages,” she said.
Member of the Azerbaijan Parliament Rovshan Rzayev pointed out the necessity to send the archival documents to the Council of Europe and other international organizations.
