Nobody is forgotten, nothing is dismissed
"An uncomfortable truth" by Samit Aliyev

The European Court of Human Rights has decided to grant Azerbaijan time until August 8 to provide information on 68-year-old Vagif Khachaturyan, who was stopped at the Lachin border checkpoint on July 29. We are already used to such things and are even starting to treat this as a sort of entertainment: “If the OSCE, PACE and Council of Europe are not yelling at ultrasound frequency levels, then we seem to be doing something wrong and have to immediately correct this situation”.
Let's have a look at the following situation: our troops opened fire in the direction of the Armenian Army positions. The Armenian Army must understand this incident, and to be precise, understand that if we opened fire to kill it means that we did not like something and the Armenian Army or Armenia itself is doing something wrong. They deserved our dismissal with such behaviour and retribution for such didn’t take long. And no emotions, neither positive nor negative. After all, the worker of a public health agency does not experience any feelings when spraying the room with some sort of pest control, he just does his job. The calm look of a professional: with less effort for great results.
It is precisely our calmness that fills the enemy with terror and understanding of the hopelessness of his situation. We cannot let the tadpole turn into a frog. So we do not allow it. Please note that Azerbaijan is doing everything the proper way, does everything when it considers it necessary, and everything works out quite well. Moreover, pay attention to the fact that neither our neighbours, nor separatists nor their protectors are capable of calculating our next step. This brings their complaining voices to become even louder, which offers us nothing but delight. They shout, they demand, but there’s nothing they can do. Did we not promise that the export of natural resources from Karabakh would no longer take place? And it did not. We wanted to install a border checkpoint in Lachin, and we did. We considered it necessary to arrest Khachaturyan, and did so. We said that the searches will be carried out thoroughly and be even picky, and so it happened. Who did not yet object to this, resent us, addresses demands to us and call us names? And Borrell did just as Menendez and Samantha Power and some guy named Ocampo and PACE and the World Council of Churches and the entire General Secretariat of the Council of Europe making use of the corresponding vocabulary, such as “chilling violation of international law”, “an unprecedented violation of human rights” and “blatant violation”. In short, all the stuff dreams are made of.
There can only be one reaction to this yelling: stay on the line, your call is very important to us, we know that you are Islamophobes and Turkophobes. So you better get used to it: arrest and detention and subsequent punishment of separatists is an internal matter of Azerbaijan. Additionally, there will be no missions to the territory of Azerbaijan without our permission, and the border checkpoint will be standing where we deem necessary. Do you have a problem with that? Too bad, because we like this very much, and your statements and feet stomping only strengthens the belief that we are doing everything right.
We are not going to forget your relationship with us during the 30 years of occupation. We are not going to forget your condescending tone and hinting that Azerbaijan should give up Karabakh. We are not going to forget your statements in the spirit of “accept the established realities”. Just as poet Aleksandr Galic wrote, though in another context: we will not forget this laughter, and this boredom, we will remember by name all who raised their hand.
Now let’s get back to our Vagifs. To the Khachaturyan ones. It’s a rich and interesting topic, really a burning one. Yes, our relevant authorities have lists of all the war criminals. Really, of all of them. Yes, they will all be punished severely and fairly. No one and nothing is forgotten, there is a border checkpoint in Lachin, and anyone leaving Azerbaijan will be thoroughly searched. You have already been offered the amnesty you refused. You cannot imagine how much this Khachaturyan has already told us and how many people he has turned in. Don’t get me started on our people in Khankandi and the neighbourhood. My dear neighbours and dearest separatists, we have a few more pleasant surprises in the line-up for you in the very near future.
And now let’s have a little history lesson. Have a look at this photograph.
It is of a young anti-aircraft soldier of the Wehrmacht, Hans-Georg Henke, who was taken captive in 1945. He is in the history books precisely because he was crying in front of the camera lens. He is just a teenager, still a child? This could be well true and I won’t even start raising the questions on what he was even doing near anti-aircraft machinery. You know, fascists always start crying when they are in someone’s firm grip. We will most definitely give them a reason to cry. A minimum jail sentence of 20 years should give one enough time to think about one’s behaviour and convince us of his remorse.
