The book deals with the massacre committed by the armed Armenians in
March-April of 1918 in Shamakhi. The prime objectives of Armenians,
committing this crime with the assistance of the Baku Soviet, were to put Baku,
rich in natural resources, under the control of the Soviet Russia by carrying out
ethnic cleansing in Baku and in its suburbs.

Preface
More than 90 years Armenian diaspora has been disseminating-partial,
most often wrong, and even distorted information to the world community.
Recently, parliaments of some countries and communities have recognized or
are currently recognizing the 1915 events as “genocide”. Regretfully, Turkey
remained silent until 15 years ago and assumed that this issue would not be
brought to agenda by Armenians as time passes. Conversely, Armenian diaspora
was and still is united in the U.S. and in other countries to this end, and
thousands of people took this mission as the maintenance of their life. By
keeping claims on the fabricated Armenian genocide in agenda, they set a goal
to protect their nationalities in different countries on the one hand, and pursue
their demand on compensation from Turkey and even territorial claims as a
means of pressure, on the other.
Dissemination of biased information in print and online media by
Armenian diaspora in over 90 years has indeed yielded certain results, thus
partial and distorted claims have gradually been accepted as a mere truth in
several countries.
The prime reason for bringing the 1915 events to the attention of the
world community and to the agenda of parliaments of some countries by
Armenia and Armenian diaspora is that they make endeavor to keep the
occupation of Azerbaijani territories by Russian ammunition 19 years ago, more
than a million of refugees and IDPs and eventually Nagorno-Karabakh problem
out of attention. This strategy is implemented meticulously and discreetly.
Evidently, Armenia and Armenian diaspora make an attempt to distract
views on the massacre carried out against Azerbaijani Turks in March-April of
1918 and on the massacre against 630 civilians, notably women and children, of
Khodjaly in 1992.
The world community should study realities from unbiased sources. To
this end, Turkey and Azerbaijan should attach great importance to this issue and
should provide the international community with undistorted and unchanged
sources by publishing the archival documents of different countries in useful
languages.
If Armenia and the Armenian diaspora put their faith in the realities of
information and sources they submitted to the international community so far,
then why do they avoid facing documents, sources and archival documentsof
Russia, France, Germany, U.K., U.S., Turkey, Armenia and Azerbaijan? Why
do they reject Turkish proposal of conducting research of the sources by the
commission that includes Turkish, Armenian and international researchers? If
Armenia and the Armenian diaspora are not concerned about disclosing -
dissemination of partial information to the world community deliberately then
why Turkish proposal is rejected?
