Anne Hidalgo, the mayor of Paris, said in her speech: “We came here to testify and express our support and friendship. Our message is clear and simple: respect international law. The population of Artsakh is under blockade against their will, and this blockade is implemented violating international law and the Tripartite Declaration of 2020. And since I have to speak using very clear and appropriate words, the words are very simple: what is happening in Artsakh today is like genocide.”
