Presidential aide comments on reports about destruction of Armenian chapel

Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan, head of the Foreign Policy Department of the Presidential Administration Hikmet Hajiyev commented on the reports spread on the media about the destruction of the Armenian chapel in Azerbaijan's Jabrayil district liberated from the Armenian occupation.

"In 2017 upon appeal of Azerbaijan, OSCE MG Co-Chairs visited an illegal chapel built in Jabrayil. They concluded that this is a chapel built in a military compound for the service of soldiers. Any attempts to change the religious/cultural nature of seized lands illegal," Hajiyev wrote on his Twitter page.

According to him, while everything related to the Azerbaijani heritage was insulted in Karabakh, the illegal construction of a military chapel contradicts the basic principles of Christianity.
