Un’altra #guerra. Tra speranze di pace e nuove minacce. Un popolo in fuga, presidenti prigionieri, patrimonio culturale in pericolo. E il rischio di un nuovo attacco azero all’Armenia. 30 anni di guerra. L’altra guerra. #Artsakh
Da domani in libreria e online

Non possiamo rimanere indifferenti per gli armeni illegalmente detenuti e processati in Azerbaigian.
Sarebbe ora che anche in 🇮🇹 si levasse una ferma condanna.
Certo, se chi deve occuparsi dei diritti umani partecipa agli eventi del regime di Aliyev…

@CesareBarberis Cirielli nella sua difesa a spada tratta della causa dell’Azerbaigian contro l’Armenia riesce persino ad andare contro il suo governo e il suo partito. Che interesse ha?
Possiamo avere un viceministro al servizio di un altro Stato? Chiarisca subito in parlamento la sua posizione!

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

@301arm Attenzione: pare che l’organizzazione dell’evento abbia provveduto a correggere la carta geografica all’ingresso.

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

@301arm Come trasformare una mostra su un sito archeologico in una operazione di propaganda anti armena. Estrema superficialità dei curatori italiani dell’evento e del ministero della cultura sponsor. Comunque a poche decine di metri una lastra di marmo testimonia l’Armenia …

@marcodpIII “Non abbiamo rivendicazioni territoriali” ma vuole libertà incondizionata di transito sul territorio di un altro Paese (l’#Armenia)…
Mi pare ridicola (anzi minacciosa) come affermazione.
Nulla di nuovo purtroppo…

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

@GiulioTerzi @GiorgiaMeloni Mi auguro che in Commissione si sia parlato anche della terribile situazione dei diritti umani in Azerbaigian (tra le 10 peggiori dittature al mondo) e del processo farsa ai prigionieri di guerra dell’#Artsakh. Va bene fare affari ma alcuni valori e principi vanno difesi.

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

Sahakyan e le altre autorità armene dell’#Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) sono illegalmente detenuti in Azerbaigian. Il processo sarà una farsa, senza alcuna garanzia per la difesa. Servirebbero osservatori internazionali e una dura condanna del regime di Aliyev

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

Oggi in #Azerbaijan inizia il processo farsa ai prigionieri armeni, comprese le autorità dell’#Artsakh.
Ho incontrato il presidente #Sahakyan nel 2014 con l’ex ministro De Michelis. Ora rischia l’ergastolo dal regime azero. Solidarietà internazionale?

“Amerikatsi”, film armeno entrato anche nella short list degli #Oscar è una pellicola delicata, ironica, commovente. Superba interpretazione di Goorjian.
Peccato la (inevitabile) breve programmazione in Italia.
Non perdetelo!

January 17, criminal trials will start in Baku. Azerbaijan's bogus charges are a cover-up of the crimes committed against the Nagorno-Karabakh people, including the prisoners #FreeArmenianHostages

[Ruben Vardanyan @RubenVardanyan_]

Statement by Ruben Vardanyan, Armenian Political Prisoner Illegally Incarcerated in Azerbaijan (conveyed to his family during his weekly phone call)
January 16, 2025

I would like to address the global community, to those who care about what is happening in our region, those opposed to religious persecution worldwide and those who wish for a lasting and genuine peace.

I, Ruben Vardanyan, have been detained at the Detention Center of the State Security Service of the Republic of Azerbaijan since September 27, 2023 – more than 470 days in total, including 340 days in solitary confinement and 23 days in a punishment cell. I would like to make an official statement before the start of the trial. If you are reading these words, it means that I have exhausted all other means to convey the truth about what is happening here.

A court hearing of my case is scheduled for January 17 at 3:00 PM. I have been informed that I am facing 42 charges, some of which carry sentences up to life imprisonment. However, I have not been granted the opportunity to fully review the official indictment. My lawyer and I were merely allowed to skim through 422 volumes of the case files, all written solely in theAzerbaijani language, which I do not understand, within a very short timeframe – from December 9, 2024, to January 8, 2025. I only received the list of charges in Russian on January 8, 2025.

Moreover, pressure has been exerted on me, my lawyer, and my interpreter to force us to backdate and sign documents, including falsified protocols and records of interrogations that never took place.

I officially declare: I have given no testimony since the day of my arrest, except during the first interrogation, where I only stated my name and surname. Let me reiterate: all protocols bearing my signature are falsifications. These documents do not exist in reality. My lawyer and interpreter were coerced into signing these documents.

I once again reiterate and state my complete innocence and the innocence of my Armenian compatriots also being held as political prisoners and demand an immediate end to this politically motivated case against us.

Despite our innocence and the political motivation of this trial, it is most likely that the prosecutor will ignore my plea and pursue a trial against us, in which case I demand and ask for your support in ensuring that I am afforded the following:

1. Allow me and my lawyer adequate time and opportunity to prepare for my defense. In particular, provide us with the opportunity to thoroughly review the case materials in a language I understand.
2. Eliminate all procedural violations and falsifications. Specifically, deem inadmissible all falsified documents and records of interrogations that never took place, as I have not provided any testimony since the day of my arrest.
3. Make my trial, and those of the Armenian political prisoners, public. I insist on the most open trial possible, with the participation of international journalists and representatives of humanitarian organizations.
4. Consolidate my case with the cases of the others accused. More than 400 of the 422 volumes in my case concern episodes from the general case of which only 6 are specifically related to false accusations against me. Separating my case into a separate proceeding is an artificial and unfounded decision.

I bear no anger or hatred. On the contrary, I genuinely empathize with all those who violate laws, moral principles, and the teachings of the Quran and other holy texts.

I am convinced that true peace will only be possible when the leaders of the countries involved in the conflict, with the support of their societies, can come together to lay flowers on the graves of all those who perished in this war.

I promise to do everything possible to ensure this happens during my lifetime. As the great Mahatma Gandhi said, the only way to save the world from self-destruction is to live by the principles of nonviolence, truth, and love. Through compassion for all people, regardless of their skin color, nationality, or religion, we can achieve true peace.

Thank you all for your support! I love and thank you all for your kindness toward me. Know that I am standing strong and believe that the truth will prevail.

Ruben Vardanyan

Aliyev called Armenia a fascist state that must not arm itself (for defense) & threatened with new war.

In 2022, Azerbaijan bombed 31 Armenian communities while ppl were asleep, killed 230+ in 2 days, mass executed POWs, mutilated women on our own soil & now occupies 250sq km.

[Artsakh Monuments @ArtsakhMon]

Crimes of fascist, occupation, terrorist Azerbaijan in the occupied city of Shushi in Artsakh. Meanwhile, the terrorist, child killer Aliyev accuses Armenia of fascism.Does the civilized world agree with Aliyev?

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

Ieri con il circolo della lettura “B. Cosentino” abbiamo parlato del Nagorno Karabakh (#Artsakh). Crescono le minacce azere contro l’#Armenia, rimangono in carcere a Baku i prigionieri di guerra armeni mentre chiese e monumenti armeni sono demoliti. Urge intervento internazionale

[Artak Beglaryan | #StopArtsakhGenocide @Artak_Beglaryan]

The trial of Armenian prisoners in Azerbaijan, set to begin on January 17, is a completely fabricated show orchestrated by the genocidal Aliyev regime.
International monitoring and pressure are essential to prevent further violations of their rights.

🇦🇲 In occasione delle celebrazioni per il Natale armeno, il Catholicos di tutti gli Armeni Karekin II ha affermato: "#Artsakh è stato occupato e devastato, i territori sovrani dell'#Armenia rimangono occupati, molti dei nostri figli sono ancora prigionieri o considerati (...)

[Emanuele Aliprandi @EmAliprandi]

Che tristezza! Qualche decina di persone in posa per la propaganda del dittatore azero Aliyev. Una pulizia etnica (quella degli armeni del Nagorno Karabakh-Artsakh) spiegata in poche immagini.
Quattro chioschi per sostituire un popolo che è stato costretto ad abbandonare tutto
