Avetik Chalabyan: The authorities state that a new genocide is being prepared in Artsakh, but at the same time, they are ready to recognize Artsakh within Azerbaijan

 

The current authorities state, mainly at Cabinet meetings,
that Azerbaijan is going to commit a new genocide against the Armenians of
Artsakh. And at the same time, they state that they are ready to recognize
Artsakh as part of Azerbaijan. Coordinator of the Hayakve initiative Avetik Chalabyan
said this during his press conference.

“In a sense, this is a classic case of schizophrenia.
Thus, we can infer from all of this that the current authorities are ready to
cede Artsakh to Azerbaijan so that Azerbaijan can commit genocide against the
Armenian population living in Artsakh. That is the case,” Chalabyan said.

He noted that we have never been so close to real genocide
as we are today. According to him, they have information that the humanitarian
crisis is so acute in Artsakh today that mass deaths may follow as a result.

“In this situation, instead of channeling all their
efforts into averting this tragedy, the current authorities make every effort
to create obstacles for Hayakve. A question arises as to what their aim is,
which nation they serve, which nation they represent and why they do all of
this,” Chalabyan said.
