Protest COP29

As COP29 approaches, we reiterate our call that there can be no climate justice without human rights, and there can be no human rights without climate justice.

Le 17 novembre 2023, la Cour internationale de justice consacrait le droit des Arméniens forcés de fuir le Haut-Karabagh à regagner leurs foyers. Un an plus tard, cette injonction adressée à l'Azerbaïdjan est restée lettre morte.
➡️ La France n'oublie rien et ne cédera rien, ni sur leur droit au retour, ni sur la protection de leur patrimoine culturel et religieux.

"Sen. @EdMarkey & I support Armenia," stressed @SenWhitehouse, pushing back against an Azerbaijani reporter covering up the ethnic cleansing of #Artsakh & sanctions against #Armenia during a #COP29 press conference.

Our full fact-finding report on Nagorno-Karabakh outlines the routes used by ethnic Armenians to flee the territory in 2023, often navigating active bombardment and damage to communications and transportation infrastructure.

The @spectator writes, "n the near three-decade history of the annual round of UN climate conferences, the Baku Cop29 stands out. (...)

Being an oil producer did not disqualify Dubai from skilfully running last year’s Cop. But the brutal ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh last year and President Ilham Aliyev’s long-standing denial of the Armenian genocide proved too much even for a UN climate conference where white-washing and hypocrisy are the order of the day."

"It's been a little over a year that 120,000 people were completely stripped of their right to live in their homeland. However, Azerbaijan, by hosting a climate conference, is choosing to instead focus on what it claims to be its qualifications as a champion of climate change and environmental issues," said Talia Jabrayan, a member of the Armenian Youth Federation of Canada.

Azerbaijani 'NGO' reps accosted US Rep. Pallone arriving in Baku for #COP29.

They swarmed him and yelled that he was bought by the "ermeni lobby" and should be deported. AZ police just watched, because this wasn't a real protest; this was AZ gov-orchestrated harassment.

When the United States told Azerbaijan they would be sending a delegation to COP29, I don’t think Baku was expecting the most pro-Armenian Senators to show up and put them on blast. Beautiful.

As an "independent NGO", we must respond to @presidentaz. "Restoring" Azerbaijani sovereignty over an ancient indigenous Armenian territory through genocide is NOT justice under international law. It’s not even LEGAL under international law.

#Azerbaijan did not act alone—without Israeli military aid and the complicity and blessing of the US State Department, this would not have been possible. To those still sitting at #COP29, shame on you for your silence.

Reports out of Baku suggest that of the 72K guests the government claims have registered for COP29 — at best only 10-15k people are there. An insider states “I think the campaign against the government has worked, contrary to what [Aliyev] says” — a massive blow for Azerbaijan.

🌍 2024 marks the third year in a row that #COP is hosted by an authoritarian petrostate.

As #COP29 kicks off in Baku, it’s vital that the international community use this year's conference to highlight its host's abysmal human rights record.

Azerbaijan, a major fossil-fuel producer and exporter, is the host of this year’s UN climate conference, COP29. And it has a terrible human rights record.

The Azerbaijani Parliament issued a statement condemning @Global_Witness for its investigation revealing that COP29 CEO Elnur Soltanov was already trying to broker gas deals ahead of the summit.

AZ calls this a "hybrid attack."

Even as Azerbaijan’s Aliyev regime enriches itself & jails journalists, the country’s ruling elite is doing its best to charm the world’s politicians + diplomats.

Their latest success: Baku is hosting the world’s premier climate change conference, #COP29.https://t.co/BvvaPkM3Ho

One of Azerbaijan’s state-affiliated media channels, Baku TV, states that if Pashinyan does not come to Baku for COP29 and accept Azerbaijan’s demands, the existence of Armenia will be called into question.
Oh, they certainly know how to extend an invitation full of threats…

Climate activist Greta Thunberg labelled the move to hold the COP29 climate talks in Azerbaijan "absurd" on Monday as she joined a demonstration against the summit being held in Baku.
