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.

The Parliament of Uruguay has adopted a statement calling on Azerbaijan to immediately release Armenian hostages. During a session of the House of Representatives, held in connection with the 110th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, Armenian MP José Luis Saghian introduced the initiative, which received cross-party support. Representatives of all political factions delivered remarks, proudly emphasizing that Uruguay was the first country to officially recognize the Armenian Genocide. Deputies José Luis Saghian, Ana Olivera, and Pedro Jisdonian also addressed the ethnic cleansing of the people of Artsakh and the ongoing detention of Armenian hostages in Azerbaijan. They recalled that the Parliament of Uruguay had previously adopted a unanimous resolution urging Azerbaijan to release all Armenian detainees without delay.

EU Energy Commissioner praises Azerbaijan's partnership with the EU and condemns Russia's invasion of Ukraine, but says nothing about AZ's ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh, its sham trials of Armenian hostages, or the hundreds of political prisoners it is jailing. EU values.
