We thank @SenarorMenendez for his kind support. May we suggest that besides the humanitarian issues, that he also mentions that the people of Artsakh are NOT separatists given that they were legally separate before Azerbaijan became sovereign in 1991? Without a clear understanding of the failure of the West to grasp the legal rights of #Artsakh, and the fact that self-determination is unrelated to 'territorial integrity' (which, according to the UN Charter only relates to EXTERNAL threats of war and polutical interference), DC decision-makers will only be playing geopolitics v humanitarian needs.

@SFRCdems @SenatorMenendez A corrupt politician refers to a corrupt prosecutor for unfounded accusations. This is not rhetoric, but well-known facts regarding Menendez and Ocampo. But this time, old Bob is lagging even behind political events. #Agdam road is already functioning.

The faces behind the genocide committed by Azerbaijan on the indigenous Armenian population of Artsakh. 150.000 native Armenians were eliminated from their homeland in September 2023 when Azerbaijan committed a genocide on the indigenous Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh/ Artsakh. Azerbaijan keeps the current and former leadership of the Republic Nagorno-Karabakh/Artsakh unlawfully captive in Baku and continuous to illegally occupy the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia. Sanction Azerbaijan and free the Armenian captives from Azerbaijian! 📹By Lindsey Snell

Azerbaijan has closed the only road into Nagorno-Karabakh, a home to ethnic Armenians, restricting the movement of food and medicine for roughly 120,000 people. “We should not accept a new Armenian genocide in 2023,” says Luis Moreno Ocampo, first prosecutor of the Int'l Criminal Court.

#France will demand the adoption of a resolution within the framework of the #UN Security Council that will create conditions for the return of Nagorno Karabakh #Armenians. This was announced by French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna during a speech in the Senate. "Azerbaijan planned and organized the exodus of more than 100,000 Armenians from #NagornoKarabakh. This serious crime cannot go unanswered. The conflict between #Armenia and #Azerbaijan can be resolved through negotiations. #Baku must understand that it cannot resort to the use of force" said Colonna. The #French Foreign Minister spoke about the need to protect the historical and cultural rights of the Armenians of Nagorno #Karabakh and the need for a permanent international presence there.

A significant humanitarian crisis is anticipated in Armenia, with a multitude of challenges that these Armenians from Artsakh are expected to face. Humanitarian aid is of utmost importance, as is border security, and sanctions on Azerbaijan, as we work to stop the escalation of this second Armenian Genocide.

The Azerbaijanis and their translator completely distorted the essence of Levon Ter-Petrosyan's statement. This is the main point of the entire speech. He essentially stated that the movement that began in 1988 provided valuable experience, as the issue of (inter)ethnic relations would have arisen anyway after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Specifically, he was referring to the fact that Azerbaijan would have initiated violence not only against the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh but also against the 500,000 Armenians living in Azerbaijan. Ter-Petrosyan said: "Today, we would not have Nagorno-Karabakh, and moreover, the fate of the 500,000 Armenians in Azerbaijan would be in question".

BREAKING: The U.S. Senate has passed Bill S. 3000 “Armenia Protection Act of 2023” and it is now awaiting House approval. This bill revokes the US President's right to suspend Section 907 of the Freedom Support Act, which will in turn prohibit military aid to Azerbaijan for a period of two years. The bill, among other things, allows for providing Armenia with external military financing, entails the development of a security strategy for the people of Nagorno-Karabakh [editorial note: Artskah], and introduces sanctions against Baku 'for the actions of the Aliyev regime towards Armenians.' Senator Gary Peters sponsored and introduced the bill on September 29, 2023 as Artsakh Armenians were being forcibly displaced from their homes by Azerbaijan’s dictatorship regime. Senator Peters led the US Congress delegation to Armenia in September 2023. To take action visit:

Azerbaijan self-proclaimed "eco-activists" have blockaded Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenia. The blockade has trapped 120k Armenians since Dec. 12. No one has gone in or out of the city for over a month. This is a time bomb waiting to go off. Take a look.

🇦🇲🇷🇺🇦🇿 Solovyov to a Ukrainian pro-Azerbaijani expert: "So you are against Artsakh? Are you aware that Artsakh is the land where Armenians have always lived. Even on the territory of modern Yerevan there were periods when Armenians were not there, but on the land of Artsakh Armenians have always been there. The only way to resolve this conflict, if not peacefully, is to destroy all the Armenians who live in Artsakh. These are people who cultivated the land, worked as teachers, and so on. Then the war came to them, and at that point these people stood up and were forced to defend themselves."

🇺🇸 U.S. Senators At #COP29 In Baku Call For Release Of Prisoners & Right Of Return Of Armenians To Artsakh 🇦🇲 ➖➖➖ U.S. Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Ed Markey expressed strong support for Armenia at the COP29 climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan. The senators emphasized their commitment to addressing the challenges facing Armenians, particularly concerning political prisoners and the right of return. Their remarks were in response to a question from a Baku TV reporter, who asked why the United States has not imposed sanctions on Armenia. Senator Whitehouse responded, “Senator Markey and I support Armenia, both of us. We are very regretful that the dislocation of so many Armenians has taken place. To put it mildly, I’m far from convinced that Armenians are to blame for that. And I don’t want to dwell in the home of my hosts on human rights issues. But if that were to be the topic, I would not be very complimentary.” Senator Markey continued, “We believe that the political prisoners should be released. We believe there should be a right of return of Armenians to Nagorno-Karabakh. And we believe that there should be a peace treaty between Azerbaijan and Armenia. Our hope is that it’s negotiated soon so that these issues can be resolved, including the issue of a capacity to have a road that can be traversed through Armenia by Azerbaijan. But it all has to be part of a negotiated treaty. My hope is that that will be the case. But as Sheldon (Whitehouse) said, you know, we ultimately need to make sure that those prisoners are released and that there is a right to return peacefully by Armenian people to Nagorno-Karabakh.”

After the ethnic cleansing of Artsakh, the Azeri regime is still holding onto the civilian political leadership of Artsakh: its prior presidents, ministers, and parliament members, as well as dozens of others as hostages to coerce further territorial concessions from Armenia. The regime threatens to invade Armenia if they don't cede several towns and villages inside Armenia's territorial boundaries. Today, Azerbaijani bulldozers are destroying what remains of Armenian heritage in Artsakh. If left without international support, the Armenian Genocide of 1915 will be finalized in the coming weeks and months. We must act now to hold Azerbaijan accountable by calling for the release of the hostages and enforcing sanctions until a safe and viable path for the return of the indigenous Armenians to Artsakh is achieved. Though today we commemorate the 109th anniversary of the beginning of the Armenian Genocide, the plight of the Armenians is not over – and we must recommit ourselves to end the ethnic cleansing and defend Armenians’ right to self-determination.

Former Azerbaijani President Heydar Aliyev also led Azerbaijan for 14 years during the Soviet era. What he said once again proves that: 1) Russian leaders have always helped Nagorno-Karabakh remain under Azerbaijani rule. 2) The Azerbaijani authorities have always created fabricated problems for the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh. Also Talysh population in Azerbaijan had similar tragedy and Moscow always helped to Azerbaijan. But Armenians were lucky, because they have their government and strong lobby in Europe, Russia and USA.

"It's not just that the entire Armenian population from Nagorno-Karabakh is now displaced - more than fifty of its state leaders are incarcerated in Azerbaijan. This incarceration is a message to the Armenians. If you come back to Nagorno-Karabakh, you will be starved, humiliated, or killed. The captivity of these people is the culmination of genocide." - Luis Moreno Ocampo, speaking at the 1st Meeting, Intersessional meeting on 75th Anniversary of Genocide Convention - UN Human Rights Council

In his address to the people, the Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan criticized #Russia for failing to fulfill its security obligations towards the Armenians of #NagornoKarabakh and Armenia. He also warned about the threats to #Armenia's independence and sovereignty, indirectly hinting at the destabilizing factor of Russia. "#Azerbaijan's attacks against Armenia in recent years lead to an obvious conclusion that the external #security systems in which we are involved aren't effective from the point of view of Armenia's state interests and security" said Pashinyan. He enumerated a number of events, such as the events of Khtsaberd, Parukh, and many other cases of intimidation of the people of #Artsakh, as well as the latest Azerbaijani attack, noting that all of these raise serious questions about the activities and motives of the Russian peacekeeping troops in Nagorno #Karabakh. Pashinyan also said that contrary to the tripartite statement of November 9, 2020, the #Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh are facing the danger of ethnic cleansing today. He mentioned that humanitarian goods have entered Artsakh, but this doesn't solve the existing crisis. "If real living conditions for Nagorno Karabakh Armenians in their homes and effective mechanisms of protection from ethnic cleansing are not created, the probability that Nagorno Karabakh Armenians will see the only way to save their lives and identity is to leave their homeland. The responsibility for such a development of events will fall entirely on Azerbaijan, which has adopted the policy of ethnic cleansing, and on the #Russian peacekeeping troops in Nagorno Karabakh" said Pashinyan. He added that his government is working with international partners on the formation of international mechanisms to ensure the rights and security of the Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh: "But if these efforts do not give concrete results, the government will welcome our sisters and brothers from Nagorno Karabakh to Armenia with all care" he said, noting, however, that the above-mentioned issues will become more serious with this. Nikol Pashinyan insisted that Armenia has never betrayed its allies, but the analysis of events shows that "those security systems and those allies that we have relied on for many years, have set the task of showing our vulnerabilities and justifying the impossibility of an independent state for the Armenian people." Moreover, according to him, such policy has nothing to do with the government established by the revolution in 2018, the manifestations of this policy were also before that. Without naming the states, Pashinyan said that some partners are making more and more efforts to show Armenia's vulnerability in the field of security, putting internal security and stability under attack. He accused those partners of not fulfilling all the norms of diplomatic, interstate relations, ethics, correctness, even the obligations assumed by the contracts. "We call and urge our partners to respect our state and sovereignty. We express our determined will to strengthen our statehood, sovereignty, democracy, external and internal security. We call on the international community to express unwavering support for Armenia's independence, sovereignty, territorial integrity and democracy" urged Pashinyan. He considered it necessary to strengthen, transform, and supplement Armenia's external and internal security tools, cooperating with all partners ready for mutually beneficial steps. The prime minister also spoke about the Rome Statute, saying that the decision to ratify it was made in December 2022, when it became clear that the #CSTO and the Armenian-Russian strategic partnership tools are not enough to ensure Armenia's external security. Pashinyan once again repeated that this decision is not directed against Russia. "The deep meaning of the events happening to us in recent years and today is exactly this: will Armenia be a sovereign, free, democratic state, or will it be a fearful periphery" he said. The Prime Minister insisted that we should go after the movement for the defense of Armenia's #independence, knowing that it will not be easy, but "it will happen".

The government of Azerbaijan has compiled a blacklist of former and current officials from Artsakh and is demanding their unlawful detention.
