Summary/Abstract: Mercilessly massacred the Muslim Turkish people and Armenians and the Russian administration who had been trying to erase the Turkish traces from the history implemented to the present a policy of genocide. Armenians and Russians have forced Turks to migrate from İrevan (Erevan) and Nagorno-Karabakh constrainedly and wipe out Turkish names of places. Turkısh traces had been destroyed totally. In İrevan and Karabakh where Turkish cities had been until 20th century, neither a Turkish person nor an artifact remained related to Turks. İrevan contained hundreds of large and small artifacts within itself, because it was under Turkish administration from the date of its establishment until 1828. But Armenians, the help of Russians, wiped out the traces of the national and spiritual values here. Armenians deliberately destroyed and changed all things that were belonging to the Turks. The most important indicator on the national identity of a territory are places’ names. Therefore, Armenians are trying constantly to make forget the past by the changing these historical toponyms. Territory which historically belongs to Turks has been occupied by Armenians with Russians’ support. The occupation process has resulted, by Armenian lobbying and supporting of the forces which did not want the peace in the Caucasus. The Armenians who occupied 20 percent of the Northern Azerbaijan territories, today are seeking pretexts to withdraw from these occupied and armenised territories by themselves. The unfounded allegations that so-called “Armenian genocide” is the represent of these causing to forget and foot dragging policy.
