The ultimate political corpus in the world, the "Islamic Conference" organization, recently held a meeting in Azerbaijan and presented Armenia as an aggressor.

Participating in the meeting were the ministers of culture of Islamic countries. In almost all their speeches, Armenia was viewed as the country that eradicates the cultural monuments of the Islamic world in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. As Oriental Studies expert Arax Pashayan states, since 1992 a 24-point resolution is passed according to which "Armenia's actions in Azerbaijan are qualified as a crime against humanity."

However, this is not the reality. As proof, expert of monuments Samvel Karapetyan brought up a couple of facts regarding Azerbaijan's eradication of Armenian monuments in Nakhijevan. Just a couple of years ago there were 218 churches in Jugha, yet now there is not one church left standing due to the state plan on destruction.

Karapetyan has compared the Armenian monuments with the monuments of the Byzantine Empire that are preserved in Turkey. According to him, they were preserved because there is no longer an empire. "Now since the Armenians exist as the owners of those monuments, the Azerbaijani are afraid of those monuments that document the existence of the owners and settling a score is by their instinct," added Karapetyan.
