This is what happens when you sacrifice your rights, your dignity: Arman Tatoyan on young people’s abduction from checkpoint

Young civilians, who were traveling to Armenia, were taken
for questioning and 3 of them were kidnapped. Isn’t it clear that the appetite
of the Azerbaijani authorities is just to open? Former Human Rights Defender
(Ombudsman) of Armenia Arman Tatoyan made a statement on this. 

“Where are the false peace preachers, nothing to say? Not
even any international guarantee is functional in case of Azerbaijan.

According to available information, the Azerbaijani side has illegally deprived
and abducted 3 young civilians from Artsakh, including using brutal force,”
Tatoyan wrote.

The young civilians were traveling to Armenia through the
Berdzor (Lachin) road, with mediation of Russian peacekeepers, for education
purposes. 

“These are the natural fruits of the fascist Armenophobic
policy of Azerbaijan.

This is what happens when you sacrifice your rights, your
dignity and other vital rights for political interests, when the primary issues
in the country are after the secondary and even the tertiary issues, or whether
even the primary issues have a place at all,” the former ombudsman wrote.
