“The residents of Armenia absolutely do not understand what Azerbaijan is, who Azerbaijanis are and what the Aliyev regime is. In recent days, Azerbaijanis have spread photos of “happy” Armenian prisoners, including Araik Harutyunyan, Davit Babayan and others, who are allegedly reading books in the library, watching TV, and there are even heating systems in the cell (Arayik Harutyunyan). After that, many Armenians write “Everything is fine with them, they are satisfied with everything, they are relaxing”, and these stupid comments get dozens of likes from other naive idiots.
Last week, the Azerbaijani media and Telegram channels widely distributed the photos of the former Artsakh presidents Arkady Ghukasyan, Bako Sahakyan, Arayik Harutyunyan, and Levon Mnatsakanyan, the former Minister of Defense of the Republic. With them, Baku tried to present the good conditions in which the kidnapped figures from Artsakh are kept, which, unfortunately, was widely spread in the Armenian domain as well.
In response to the Azerbaijani propaganda machine, even some Armenians in the Armenian domain of social networks have started to condemn and name the imprisoned figures. The Russian-Israeli blogger Alexander Lapshin, who felt the “luxury” of the prison in Baku, responded to them, “Pastinfo” reports.
Under the pictures, he made a comment stating that he never ceases to be surprised by the fantastic infantilism and naivety of many Armenians.

Folks, you don’t understand that these are staged photos. I was kept in the Kurdakhan prison in Baku and taken to the library to be photographed for the Aliyev media. The Azerbaijanis gave me a book and told me to smile, otherwise I will be deprived of walks in the prison yard. Then they took the book from me and returned me to a dirty and smelly cell, where I was kept for seven whole months.
The prison cells are actually much worse, they were taken to the medical building to be photographed. There are several elite cells in the medical building, similar to the ones shown in the photo. There is no heating in ordinary cells, the prisoners freeze in winter, sleep under torn Soviet blankets, wearing all their clothes. There is no TV there either, but I was taken to a cell in the medical building where there were TVs for taking pictures.
When I read the nonsense that Armenians write about the “happy” faces of Armenian prisoners, I am simply disgusted by such Armenians. Regardless of the identity of these people in the photo (many should be tried for treason and bribery), they are in a really bad situation and are being used as a tool to put pressure on Armenia. You should understand that Azerbaijan today is no different from the Taliban or IS. These prisoners are seriously threatened with torture and death in Baku prison.
Let me remind you that in this same prison, the Azerbaijanis, shouting “Allah Akbar”, beat me half to death, broke my hand, fingers, three ribs, jaw and front teeth. This was about three months after they took a picture of me “happy” with a book in my hand. By the decision of May 20, 2021, the European Court found Azerbaijan guilty of illegal arrest, cruel torture and attempted murder,” wrote Lapshin.
