Yerevan/11.09.12/Turan-ArmInfo: The Armenian terrorist organization ASALA stated that it had not sent threatening letters to the employees of the Azerbaijani embassy in Budapest. This is said in the statement of the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia (ASALA) received by the Armenian media today. The statement noted that the organization had never attacked Azerbaijan, and its primary mission is the liberation of Western Armenia (present-day Turkey).
"Turkey cannot escape the judgment of history and the responsibility for the murder of millions of harmless Armenians. It cannot build a state on the bones of the murdered people. Awakening of the peoples of the region today prevents the expansionist policies of Ankara, and there is no doubt that the Armenian and Kurdish peoples must restore their violated rights and liberate their land from the clutches of the historic Turkish invaders," the statement said.
Recall that in early September, the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Hungary received an email with death threats over all the diplomats. This happened after the extradition of the Azerbaijani officer Ramil Safarov sentenced for the murder of an Armenian officer from Hungary.
It is noteworthy that ASALA is internationally recognized as a terrorist organization and its existence in Armenia itself says a lot. -02D-
