Western Azerbaijan Community Condemns Pace For Supporting Armenian Games
(MENAFN- AzerNews) Western Azerbaijan Community calls on the President of the
Parliamentary Assembly (PACE) of the Council of Europe not to be a
tool of Armenia's crafty games and protect its independence, Azernews reports.
The statement reads:
“The Western Azerbaijan Community condemns the lop-sided
statement of the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the
Council of Europe (PACE), Tiny Kox, dated July 31, 2023, and calls
on PACE not to be a tool of Armenia's crafty games and protect its
independence,” the Community said in a statement.
The statement also says:“We would like to emphasize again that
the issue of supplies to Armenians living in the Karabakh region of
Azerbaijan is a mere provocation created by Armenia to mislead the
international opinion. In particular, on the instructions of
Armenia, a group of separatist criminals has sealed off the roads
from other regions of Azerbaijan to the areas where Armenians live
in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan, demanding an exclusive route
for supplies from Armenia in an uncontrolled manner. On Armenia's
instigation, such elements closed the Aghdam-Khankendi road with
concrete blocks. These forces did it defiantly, released video
footage of the road closure, and declared that they would not allow
the road to be used for supplies by ordinary people.
In this regard, the fact-finding mission mentioned by Tiny Kox
should not be sent to Azerbaijan, which is determined to
reintegrate the Armenian residents living in the Karabakh region,
but to Armenia, which has expelled Western Azerbaijanis from
Armenia and denied us our right to return.
We remind Tiny Kox that co-rapporteurs of PACE on Armenia have
not yet responded to the letter addressed to them by the Western
Azerbaijan Community on March 1 this year. The Western Azerbaijan
Community, which promotes the ideas of peaceful coexistence, urges
Tiny Kox not to approach the issue of human rights from the prism
of double standards, to give public support for our proposal for
dialogue with Armenia and the return to our ancestral lands in
Armenia.”
