Diplomats touring Artsakh while around 150k Armenians are ethnically cleansed by Azerbaijan are not observers; they are props. You cannot normalize the erasure of a people and their heritage. Silence is complicity.

Joel Veldkamp, Director for Public Advocacy, urged the UN Special Rapporteur “to undertake a fact-finding visit to the displaced people of #NagornoKarabakh, and submit a report on the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno Karabakh to the Human Rights Council.”

We stress that no genuine peace b/w 🇦🇲&🇦🇿 can be achieved w/o justice for the Nagorno-Karabakh people. Any agreement that disregards rights, erases history, sacrifices future is not a peace agreement, but an act of appeasement that rewards aggression & source of future conflict.
