Dear people of Artsakh, be sure that the people of the Republic of Armenia, the civil society, do not stop thinking about you for a minute and sympathize with your sufferings. Eastern Partnership Civil Society Forum’s Armenian National Platform, its member organizations continue to make efforts to deliver comprehensive information to their European partners regarding the humanitarian crisis in Artsakh due to the Russian-Azerbaijani blockade of the Lachin Corridor, which is growing day by day into a humanitarian disaster and a new Holodomor in the 21st century, criminal aiming to depatriate and displace the people living in its homeland. We need to reach the point where the moral support of the European countries turns into objective political actions aimed at putting pressure on Azerbaijan and ensuring the security and inalienable rights of the people of Artsakh.
We continue to insist that the Lachine Corridor and Nagorno Karabakh / Artsakh should be recognized as a UN sub-mandated territory and international (UN) peacekeeping forces should be deployed there.
Aliyev’s tyrannical regime has proven with its non-stop genocidal actions that any subordination of Artsakh to Azerbaijan will lead to the destruction of Artsakh and the extermination or deportation of its people.
We wish you endurance, strength and courage in your struggle for freedom, dignity and sovereignty.
