The statement by Daphne Rand, US assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights and labor issues, at the Human Dimension Conference in Warsaw on October 1, reflects the view that the US side “continues to examine alleged violations of international humanitarian law and human rights in Nagorno-Karabakh”, is surprising.
Oku.Az reports that this opinion was included in the statement by the press secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Aykhan Hajizade, on the statement by the US assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights and labor issues at the Human Dimension Conference held in Warsaw on October 1.
“It is interesting that, despite the large-scale crimes against humanity and massacres against Azerbaijanis committed by Armenia during the military occupation of Azerbaijani territories, the American side is only now referring to the importance of eliminating violations of international humanitarian law For almost 30 years, the United States has responded with complete silence to these Armenian crimes.
If the US side wants to demonstrate impartiality and a fair position, it should first demand that the numerous crimes committed by Armenia be investigated and that the culprits be held accountable before the law.
Otherwise, this is nothing more than a unilateral statement issued as a result of Armenian propaganda aimed at confusing the international community and distracting attention from the flagrant violation of basic human rights and freedoms of hundreds of thousands of Azerbaijanis during the aggression. of Armenia.” A. Hajizade said.
