U.S. Representative Randy Fine, a pro-Azerbaijani lawmaker, declared, “We don’t want Armenians to be able to serve in Congress,” in a racist rant that directly discriminates against an ethnic group. The remark calls for excluding Armenians from elected office, raising serious concerns about civil rights and democratic representation in...

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.

Kamo - an ethnic Armenian resident of Garabagh explains in fluent Azerbaijani how he is being taken care of by Azerbaijani doctors, nurses & social workers 24/7. That’s the spirit of #Azerbaijan, treating all minorities with utmost respect & care. And that’s what we were offering to Garabagh Armenians - a peaceful life as citizens of Azerbaijan with all rights and security guarantees. Glad that Kamo decided to stay.

Following the ethnic cleansing of 120,000 Christian Armenians from their ancestral homeland of Artsakh, these persecuted Christians have found refuge in the embrace of Armenia. Regrettably, amidst this humanitarian crisis, the United States has been seen supporting Azerbaijan, the orchestrator of this ethically troubling cleansing of Christians from the region. Recently, Congressman Brad Sherman has pressed Secretary of State Antony Blinken to provide aid to Artsakh refugees now living in Armenia. As Christians, we are called upon to extend our hands in mercy and succor to those who suffer. The United States, guided by principles of compassion and human rights, should extend its assistance to alleviate the suffering of these displaced Christians.🙏🏻

Israeli forces struck a residential building in Bourj Hammoud – the heart of Lebanon's Armenian community. This comes just days after U.S.-Israeli forces hit a residential complex in Iran's Majidieh district – also home to a significant Armenian community. Bourj Hammoud was founded by survivors of the Armenian Genocide – and was a place where Armenian culture & identity were able to flourish in the wake of the attempted destruction of our nation. Over the course of the century, Beirut became a global center of Armenian culture, language, education, and diaspora life. During the Lebanese Civil War, Armenians organized self-defense units in Bourj Hammoud to preserve their neutrality, protect the community, and prevent any force from capturing the district. During the Syrian Civil War, Bourj Hammoud became a critical refuge for Armenians fleeing Aleppo. During the 2006 Israeli assault on Lebanon, Bourj Hammoud's Armenian schools, churches & community centers offered food and shelter for refugees from across the country. And following the 2020 Beirut Port Explosion – which hit Bourj Hammoud hard – the Armenian community rallied to provide humanitarian relief & shelter to those impacted. At its peak before the civil war, Armenians made up close to 10% of Lebanon's population. Today, less than half remain. As the illegal U.S.-Israeli war of aggression against Iran destabilizes the entire region – our communities across the Middle East face a threat to their very existence.

🇺🇸 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.”

According to reports, during the #COP29 conference in Azerbaijan, footballer Ronaldinho was gifted a carpet presented as #Azerbaijan|i, but actually #Armenia|n, which was most likely stolen from #Artsakh after the 2023 ethnic cleansing. It is also possible that it is a counterfeit of the original. The screenshot features an original and quintessential Armenian element.

I’m here in #Armenia, on the border with #Azerbaijan — with the Lachin Corridor behind me. This was the site or the ethnic cleansing of 120,000 Armenian Christians. This corridor once connected Armenia proper to Nagorno-Karabakh, or #Artsakh — a part of ancient Armenia, the first nation to adopt Christianity in 301 AD. For nine months, Azerbaijan blockaded this road, cutting off all food and supplies causing a severe humanitarian disaster. Then in September 2023, backed by #Turkey, Azerbaijan launched a military assault — forcing 120,000 Armenian Christian to flee their ancestral homeland. This was ethnic cleansing. Yesterday, I sat with a young to woman whose sister was horrifically tortured and killed — with the video shared online by Azeri soldiers. I heard a similar story about a young man. Despite a verbal peace agreement, Azerbaijan keeps adding new conditions. And every night, they fire across the border at Armenian homes — even near international observers. The U.S. and international community must act — to stand with Armenia and make clear that it should not be forced to give up one more inch of land. We also need to help residents of Artsakh rebuild their lives and demand Azerbaijan release all the Artsakh prisoners. And we must ensure that Armenian Christians are never again subjected to persecution or victims of genocide or ethnic cleansing.

Pro-Armenian Congressman Frank Pallone Arrives In Baku For COP29, Faces Hostile Protests & Government-Backed Manipulation ➖➖➖ Pro-Armenian U.S. Congressman Frank Pallone has arrived in Baku, Azerbaijan, for the UN COP29 climate summit, stepping into a tense and hostile environment, reports Zartonk Media. Upon Pallone’s arrival, he was surrounded and harassed by pro-government pseudo-journalists who hurled politically charged questions unrelated to the climate agenda. Outside, protesters demanded his deportation, holding signs and chanting slogans such as “Pallone apologize or get out!” Azerbaijani police allowed these demonstrations to proceed while ignoring escalating hostility—clear evidence that the protests were orchestrated and sanctioned by the regime. This coordinated campaign is part of a broader Azerbaijani government propaganda effort aimed at discrediting Pallone and other advocates for Armenian rights, raising serious concerns about the safety of U.S. officials and supporters of Armenian causes abroad. The situation further calls into question the credibility and impartiality of COP29, as Azerbaijan appears more focused on political posturing than genuine climate discussions. Pallone, a prominent advocate for Armenian issues and co-chair of the Armenian Congressional Caucus, is well-known for his strong stance against Azerbaijan’s aggression and human rights abuses. As the ranking member of the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee and a member of the House Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Caucus, his presence at COP29 underscores the intersection of political tensions and environmental discussions. “It is outrageous for a foreign dictatorship to try to bully and intimidate an American legislator, simply standing up for human rights,” said Aram Hamparian, Executive Director of Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) to Zartonk Media. ➖ Before his visit, Pallone reaffirmed his commitment to climate action, stating in a post on X: “The United States must remain a leader in the global fight to combat the worsening climate crisis. Now more than ever, I look forward to attending the COP29 climate conference to demonstrate that America is still in this fight.” His arrival underscored the political tensions undermining the climate conference’s integrity. Azerbaijan has used COP29 as a platform for political maneuvering instead of genuine climate dialogue. Government-sanctioned demonstrations against Pallone’s pro-Armenian stance exemplify Azerbaijan’s efforts to silence dissent and manipulate international platforms. Azerbaijani state media and pro-government NGOs further fueled tensions by making baseless accusations against Pallone’s guards, alleging violence and misconduct—tactics aimed at deflecting attention from Azerbaijan’s own human rights abuses. The regime’s claims of “inclusive dialogue” are clearly a facade, as dissent is met with repression and harassment. Pallone’s participation at COP29, combined with his advocacy for Artsakh Armenians, highlights Azerbaijan’s misuse of international forums and underscores the need for global accountability for its war crimes, hostilities, and oppression of Armenians in Artsakh. In a letter to the U.S. State Department, Pallone and 60 pro-Armenian lawmakers emphasized holding Azerbaijan accountable for its actions and illegal occupation of Armenian territories. The treatment of Congressman Pallone at COP29 demonstrates Azerbaijan’s ongoing efforts to weaponize international platforms and suppress legitimate discourse. Protests outside his hotel, the targeting of his security detail, and state-sanctioned harassment expose the true nature of this “climate summit”: a platform for propaganda and repression. The world must not remain silent.

🇺🇸 Rep. Frank Pallone Calls for Peace & Self-Determination For Artsakh Armenians 🇦🇲 Amid Azerbaijani Hostilities ➖➖➖ During a joint press conference following their return from COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, Rep. Frank Pallone and Senator Ed Markey recounted their harrowing experiences and reiterated their urgent calls for the release of Armenian prisoners—a stance that made them targets of the Azerbaijani regime. Rep. Pallone laid out his vision for a peaceful resolution in Artsakh, stressing the right of displaced Armenians to return and reclaim their homes. “Ideally, I would like to see the people from Artsakh, I use Artsakh, going back, right, being able to reclaim their property, and if they want to stay, being able to stay. That can only happen if this antagonism, if there’s a peace agreement, if this antagonism ends,” Pallone stated. He underscored the importance of self-determination and protection of rights for Armenians who choose to return, adding, “I think there should be some kind of self-determination, or, you know, rights that they would have to maintain in Artsakh if they go back.” Pallone also highlighted the obstacles posed by Azerbaijani President Aliyev’s actions, noting, “But there’s no reason why we can’t get back to that, right, in some form, but it’s not gonna happen when, you know, someone like Aliyev is, you know, blowing up the ship every day.”

Thirty-seven years have passed since the Kirovabad (Gandzak) pogroms. Beginning on November 21, 1988, Azerbaijani mobs armed with clubs, rebar, knives, and stones carried out a week of organized attacks against the Armenian population of Kirovabad, then the second-largest city of the Azerbaijan SSR, now called Ganja. Armenian homes were raided, residents were hunted through the streets, and entire neighborhoods were terrorized with the explicit objective of cleansing the city of its Armenian presence. In the aftermath, the remaining Armenians were forced to abandon Kirovabad completely. These events were not isolated. They followed the Sumgait pogroms earlier that same year and formed part of a broader pattern of targeted anti-Armenian violence throughout Soviet Azerbaijan. The intent was clear: erase Armenian communities through intimidation, murder, and forced displacement. The same logic continued long after 1988 and reached its most brutal expression in 2023 with the complete depopulation of Artsakh, where more than one hundred thousand Armenians were driven from their ancestral homeland in a matter of days. The world witnessed the culmination of a policy that had been set in motion decades earlier. Remembering Kirovabad is not only an act of historical truth. It is a reminder that the violence of the past is directly connected to the tragedy that unfolded in Artsakh in 2023. The victims were part of the same story of erasure, carried out by the same state and driven by the same ideology. 📷 National Television Archive Bakur Karapetyan, Walking in Torment Anatoly Talashkevich, From Sumgait to Ossetia Grigory Atayan, 1983: Kirovabad on Osipyan

Greta Thunberg To Boycott COP29 In Baku, Citing Azerbaijan’s Ethnic Cleansing Of Artsakh Armenians & Fossil Fuel Dependence ➖➖➖ Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg has announced her decision to boycott the upcoming COP29 climate summit, set to take place in Baku, Azerbaijan, from November 11 to 22, 2024. Thunberg made her statement during a protest in Tbilisi, Georgia, denouncing the UNFCCC’s choice of Azerbaijan as the host for the summit. In her speech, Thunberg criticized the UN’s decision, describing it as “extreme hypocrisy.” She stated, “I am not going to Azerbaijan to COP. It is extreme hypocrisy of the UNFCCC to let yet another authoritarian, petrostate and regime to host the COP. Both for the people in Azerbaijan that the regime are repressing, and the Armenians who the Azerbaijani regime is guilty of ethnic cleansing, and also the climate itself that a country which is so reliant on fossil fuels and is planning to expand the production of fossil fuels gets to host the COP She continued by highlighting Azerbaijan’s reliance on fossil fuels and plans to expand its production, calling the decision “a slap in the face to all the people who are suffering from the climate emergency and from the repression and oppression of the Azerbaijani regime.” Thunberg also pointed out the restrictions on land borders, saying, “The land borders are closed, so I wouldn’t be able to go there, even if I wanted to. Which is insane; that’s something that I’ve heard many Azerbaijanis describe as being kept in a prison.” Her remarks have added to the global discourse surrounding COP29, raising questions about the summit’s choice of host country amid concerns over human rights and environmental policies.

Armenian Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan: "Armenians should build relations with Azerbaijanis, Armenian society should move away from a ‘planet where only Armenians live." "When something about your neighbor is bothering you - be sure that the same issue is bothering them too. When you say that so many of my people have been killed, they also have lost many. There are mothers, too; they love their children the same way, whether the mother is Azerbaijani, Georgian, Armenian, or Russian. We need to move away from this “planet of Armenians.” There is a planet where only Armenians live. And I believe we are a wise people, and we can understand that. And the French and the English, they fought for 100 years. They called each other “frog-eaters” and “pigs.” They hated each other. They are now allies, they build the economy together, and they jointly set the rules. And what are we supposed to do? What is the choice? And doesn’t a person living in Azerbaijan see the Armenian flag? Doesn’t it bother him? Didn’t we kill anyone there? Was the war all one-sided? And why can they, but we can’t? #Armenians and #Azerbaijanis, We must live together, we must trade, and we must talk. We have a lot in common in everyday life and in traditions." Alen Simonyan said in an interview with Radio Van

🚨 UPDATE: Rep. Randy Fine is DEMANDING passage of his legislation to BAN dual citizens from serving in Congress Somalis, Israelis, Guatemalans, Armenians, ALL DUAL CITIZENS, PERIOD! FINE: "We need to pass my bill to stop the invasion of dual citizens in Congress. NOW." He said recently: "Many Democrats are dual citizens of the country that they immigrated from." "Think about it. When you're a citizen of a country, you take an oath of allegiance to that country. How can you serve in the government of the United States if you've pledged allegiance to another country?!" "So it wouldn't preclude you from being an American, but it would say you can't be in Congress." "Now, if you're currently a dual citizen and you want to burn the citizenship of that other country, then you can, but dual citizens should not serve in Congress!" "Well, you want to be an American, great, but you shouldn't be able to be in Congress if you want to be a dual citizen as well."

The second UN mission has arrived in Artsakh. The mission's delegation passed through Akna and proceeded in the direction of Askeran-Stepanakert. The previous visit of the UN Mission took place on October 1, a day after Azerbaijan's President Aliyev donated one million USD to the United Nations Human Settlements Program. This mission and the subsequent report it generated raised significant concerns among experts due to its subjectivity and inaccuracies. Most notably, the mission only visited Akna and Stepanakert, neglecting to inspect the villages. Their report claimed no damage to civilian public infrastructure, including hospitals, schools, and housing, as well as cultural and religious structures, despite the photographic proof of civilians being targeted. The mission also failed to document any reports of violence against civilians, both from local interviews and interlocutors, following the latest ceasefire. Additionally, the mission did not report the forced displacement of more than 100,000 Artsakh Armenians, referring to it as an 'exodus.' The report stated that as few as 50 to 1,000 ethnic Armenians remain in the "Karabakh region of Azerbaijan" after more than 100,000 fled in recent days. This second visit could be a chance for the UN to redeem themselves and amend their previous statement to be accurate.

BREAKING: George Deek, Israel's Special Envoy to the Christian World, says "We never got involved or took position in the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia, per se", which led to the ethnic cleansing of Christian Armenians and their Churches from Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh). You have to admire that carefully placed "per se". The amount of heavy lifting it does for Israel's image in the Christian world would've been commendable had it not been a typical hasbara escape hatch, absolving Israel of any responsibility or accountability, and invariably collapsing under the weight of Israel's own record during that war. In no particular order: ⁃According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), between 2016 and 2020, leading up to the 44 Day War, roughly 69% of weapons exports to Azerbaijan came from Israel, in a war that butchered 5,000 Armenian soldiers, barely adults. So neutral. ⁃The highly advanced Israeli weapons systems included loitering munitions (suicide drones) such as the IAI Harop and Elbit SkyStriker, Hermes 900 reconnaissance drones, Spike anti-tank guided missiles, and LORA surface-to-surface ballistic missiles. ⁃Israeli weapons manufacturer Aeronautics Defense Systems used a suicide drone by attacking Armenian positions during a sale presentation at the behest of Azeri officials who requested a live demonstration. ⁃Israeli military personnel trained Azeri soldiers in piloting drones. ⁃Azerbaijan supplies 65% of Israel's crude oil imports, which are pumped via the BTC pipeline through Georgia and Turkey. A clear energy security and arms agreement: you send oil, we give you weapons. So neutral. ⁃In December 2023, Azerbaijan effectively blockaded the Lachin Corridor, the only route between Armenia and Artsakh. A starvation campaign ensued for 9 months, targeting hundreds of thousands of Armenian indigenous Christians: Food shortages, supermarket shelves emptied, families lining up for hours for a piece of bread. No fuel. No medicine. Cancer patients requiring urgent treatment were stranded. Malnutrition. Miscarriages. George Deek was Ambassador at that time. He was there in Baku. Did he voice concern for the besieged Christians in Artsakh? No. His country enabled it. Haaretz, an Israeli outlet, even published a bombshell report entitled "Israel's fingerprints all over the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh". To quote the Special Christian envoy himself: "When violence against a vulnerable minority is ignored because acknowledging it is politically inconvenient, there is a name for it: abandonment." For Israel, the defense of the Armenian Christian presence in Artsakh was politically inconvenient. That is why they were complicit in the ethnic cleansing of 150,000 indigenous Christian Armenians from their 2,000-year-old homeland.
