The Armenians have destroyed virtually all religious and
historical monuments in the previously occupied territories of
Azerbaijan, Chairman of the State Committee for Work with Religious
Structures of Azerbaijan, Mubariz Gurbanli, said, Trend
reports.
Gurbanli noted that out of 67 mosques in Karabakh, only one
remained, which was preserved by the occupiers for their own
purposes, but they also tried to change its belonging to
Azerbaijan.
“Moreover, the Armenians tried to Armenize the historical and
religious monuments of Caucasian Albania, as well as the monuments
of other confessions. Information about this has already been
collected by Azerbaijan’s Ministry of Culture, as well as other
structures, on the basis of which the relevant documents have been
prepared,” the chairman noted.
“During his repeated trips to the liberated territories, the
president of Azerbaijan stressed that all these historical and
religious monuments will be restored. Foreign experts also take
part in this process. The Heydar Aliyev Foundation is implementing
a large-scale program in this direction,” Gurbanli stressed.
