The European Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy
\nstrongly condemns Charles Michel’s endorsement of using Aghdam as an
\nalternative to the Lachin corridor. This is said in the statement of the
\nArmenian National Committee – International (ANC – International).
<\/p><\/p>\n
“President Michel’s approach, which equates the issue of
\ndelivering “humanitarian supplies” from Aghdam to Artsakh with the crucial
\nmatter of opening the Lachin corridor, is fundamentally erroneous. As EU
\ncitizens, we condemn President Michel’s support for Azerbaijan’s agenda of
\nusing Aghdam to provide so-called “humanitarian assistance” to the same
\nArmenian population, which has been subjected to starvation, terror, and
\nblockade by Azerbaijan for more than seven months now. In fact, Azerbaijan has
\nbeen gradually tightening the lethal circle around the indigenous Armenian
\npopulation of Nagorno-Karabakh, pushing them further into despair,” reads the
\nstatement.
<\/p><\/p>\n\n
It is mentioned in the statement that by expressing EU’s
\nsupport for Azerbaijan’s agenda, the President of the EU Council not only legitimizes
\nthe ethnic cleansing policy of an authoritarian regime, but also goes against
\nthe ruling of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) of the United Nations,
\nwhich ordered Azerbaijan to immediately lift the blockade of the Lachin
\ncorridor. These press remarks also undermine the resolution adopted by the
\nEuropean Parliament in March 2023, which calls on the EU Council to impose
\nsanctions on Azerbaijani government officials if Azerbaijan fails to promptly
\nimplement the February 22 ICJ’s order. This approach by the EU leadership
\nallows Baku to avoid pressure to unblock the Lachin corridor.
