YEREVAN, APRIL 19, ARTSAKHPRESS. Edmon Marukyan, Ambassadors-at-Large of Armenia, appealed to the international community, urging to continue making efforts in the direction of creating an international mechanism for guaranteeing the rights and security of the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh, ARTSAKHPRESS.reports, Marukyan wrote on his official Twitter page.
“Azerbaijan’s president Ilham Aliyev keeps claiming that the issue of Nagorno Karabakh is an internal matter and they are not going to discuss it with anyone.
First of all, I am reminding again that no internal matter was dealt with by 3 Permanent Member states of the UN Security Council. I mean OSCE Minsk Group Cochair’s Russia, USA and France negotiated the matter for decades, and now the EU is also engaged in this matter. Therefore, Nagorno Karabakh issue is not an internal matter of Azerbaijan.
Second, the fundamental Human Rights and freedoms was not considered an internal issue for more than 70 years, since World War 2, because international community learned the lessons of the devastating World War and that any dictator or democratically elected leader cannot be allowed to commit mass violations of human rights. In this case the people of Nagorno Karabakh are in the danger of the ethnic cleansing. Thus, the international community must continue its efforts for peaceful resolution and creation of international mechanism between official representatives of Azerbaijan and Nagorno Karabakh for guaranteeing the rights and security of Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh”, Marukyan wrote.
