Its required from us to re-establish a state that has been invaded from us in a non legitimate way, considering the changes sweeping through the ME and the world. Side by side our efforts , we can currently achieve this but the kurdish community in the Soviet union should think about uniting their efforts to solve the so called 4 parts of kurdistan which in fact is 5 which is Red Kurdistan . we must commence our efforts to re-establish Red Kurdistan and call it (Caucasusi Kurdistan) , and regarding this i have been in contact with Leader of Red kurdistan (Wakeel Mustafaeev) , and i believe this time , which will be the third and last time we will establish Caucasusi Kurdistan , and we will unite all the other parts and thus we will aciheive the goal that Kurds having been striving for 1000 of years. We have sent the letter from Caucasusi Kurdistan Leader (Wakel Mustafaeev) to the Pres. of Russia (Medvedev) and a copy to Pres. of Azerbaijan and Armenia , in the letter it has clearly been mentioned that the (Minsek) community will not solve the (Karabaxs) issue, but re-establishing a kurdish state in its old original border will solve this issue.
A brief history about Red (Caucasusi) Kurdistan:
Shadaddeans - kurdish state in Caucasus , in the fall of Arabic Khalifa 951 A.D. , the position of Armenia region with the Capital (Dwen) in the beginning of 967A.D. gradually got stronger , the Shadaddeans have ruled the Aran region (Ganja) the Capital , before them was ruled by the Armenian region Khalifat after been invaded by the Saljuks , in 1074 A.D. became kingdom (Baxratit) Aniseas , together they formed Anisea Emirate in the mid of 15th century , under the rule of Salaris (Ganja) became the Capital of Shaddadi Kurds. During the rule of (Fechlun 895-1030) (Ganja) became stronger , they build their own castle and in 1063 the gate of (Ganja) was built , this made it a stronger hold and started expanding to have trade and industrial area , Salahadeen Ayubi himself was originally from (Dwen).
(Bahadin Bin Shadad) secretary of great leader writes in his book: (Salahadin's father was born in Dwen) , also Ibn Asir who was one of Salahadin fellows says: Salahadin's family migrated from Dwen which is located in Azerbaijan to Iraq and joined (Mujahidi Bahrozi) which later appointed Salahadin's Father as the leader of Tikrit's Castle.
Kurdistan (Azerbaijani: 'Kürdüstan qəzası, Russian: Курдистанский уезд, Kurdistanskij Uezd), also known colloquially as Red Kurdistan (Azerbaijani: Qızıl Kürdistan; Kurdish: Кöрдьстана Сор Kôrdistana Sor; Russian: Красный Курдистан Krasnyj Kurdistan) was a Soviet administrative unit that existed for six years from 1923 to 1929. Its capital was Lachin (Laçın in Turkish).
The presence of Kurds in today's Azerbaijan dated back to the 9th century. The area between Karabakh and Zangezur became inhabited by nomadic Kurdish tribes in the 18th century. Eventually, this population became the majority in most parts of the region, particularly around Lachin, Kalbajar (Kelbajar in Kurdish), and Qubadli (Qûbadlî in Kurdish).
Although commonly referred to as an okrug or an Autonomous Oblast, Red Kurdistan was neither. It was an uyezd, a typical administrative unit much like any other in Azerbaijan,[citation needed] with no greater level of autonomy than any other uyezd. According to other sources, status of Kurdistan Uyezd was different than status of other administrative units of Azerbaijan and it enjojed a certain level of autonomy. Kurdistan was created by the Soviet authorities to attract sympathies of Kurdish people in neighboring Iran and Turkey and take advantage of Kurdish movements in those countries. It was established on July 7, 1923, under the official name "Kurdistan Uyezd". The majority of Kurds in the region were Shi'a, unlike the Sunni Kurds of Nakhchivan (Sadarak, Teyvaz) and other areas of the Middle East. Azeri authorities included them in their Azerification campaign, which resulted in the loss of first-language speech and identity. At the 1926 census, uyezd had a total population of 51,426 people, ethnic Kurds constituted 72.3% or 37182 people .
On April 8, 1929, the Kurdistan Uyezd was dissolved. On May 30, 1930, a Kurdistan Okrug was founded instead. Okrug included the territory of former uyezd and also entire Zangilan raion and part of Jabrayil raion. However, due to the protests of Soviet Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which was concerned that open support of Kurdish movement could damage the relations with Turkey and Iran, the okrug was liquidated on July 23, 1930. In late 1930s Soviet authorities deported most of the Kurdish population of Azerbaijan and Armenia to Kazakhstan, and Kurds of Georgia also became victims of Stalin’s purges in 1944.[7] Starting from 1961, there were efforts by deportees for the restoration of their rights, spearheaded by Mehmet Babayev who lived in Baku, which proved to be futile.
In 1992, after the capture of Lachin by Armenian forces during the Nagorno-Karabakh war, the Lachin Kurdish Republic was declared in Armenia by a group of Kurds led by Wekîl Mustafayev. However, since most of the area's Kurdish population had fled along with the ethnic Azeris and had found refuge in other regions of Azerbaijan, this attempt failed. Mustafayev later took refuge in Italy.
