BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 14. The recent
circulation of a videotape showing Levon Ter-Petrosian's 1993
speech as President of Armenia has confirmed that the ethnic
cleansing of Azerbaijanis was a state policy in Armenia, the
statement of the Western Azerbaijan Community said, Trend reports.
This statement by Ter-Petrosyan, whose presidency coincided with
the Occupation of Azerbaijani territories and the implementation of
widespread ethnic cleansing policies against Azerbaijanis, serves
as critical evidence of Armenia's systemic approach to ethnic
cleansing and the dangerous racist ideology driving these
actions.
“This statement proves that there is a purposeful intention
behind the policy of ethnic cleansing and occupation, demonstrates
Armenia's state responsibility, the systematic and organized nature
of crimes against humanity and crimes against peace, and the
existence of a concrete plan.
The Western Azerbaijan Community sent letters to UN
Secretary-General António Guterres and UN High Commissioner for
Human Rights Volker Türk on this issue. The letter contains an
appeal to the international community to strongly condemn the
policy of racial discrimination and ethnic cleansing systematically
pursued by Armenia at the state level.
The Western Azerbaijani community will continue its efforts to
ensure that the international community takes a strong position
against Armenia's policy of racial discrimination,” the statement
reads.
