Issue of security and rights of Armenians of NK is everyone's issue. Armenian FM
More international efforts are needed to prevent ethnic cleansing by Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, ARMENPRESS reports, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia Ararat Mirzoyan said during the panel discussion held within the framework of the Dubrovnik Conference.
Mirzoyan emphasized that Armenia is conducting negotiations with Azerbaijan in good faith, but in the negotiation process and on the ground, it still faces threats and real use of force. "We have a blockade of Nagorno-Karabakh. We need more international efforts to prevent ethnic cleansing," said the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia.
Ararat Mirzoyan stressed that there is an issue of security and rights of the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh, which is everyone's issue. "The people of Nagorno-Karabakh are facing a real danger of ethnic cleansing. If the world order that we are talking about, that we dream about, is based on values, then humanity has a chance. Let me repeat once more: we are talking about human lives. Now we are talking about world unrest, violations of international law, but we have been talking about it since 2020, when Azerbaijan started an aggressive war in Nagorno-Karabakh, after which it invaded the sovereign territory of Armenia several times," said the Armenian FM.
