YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 19, ARMENPRESS. Azerbaijan is committing another war crime by killing peaceful and unprotected people, Armenia’s Ambassador-at-Large Edmon Marukyan said amid the ongoing Azeri bombardment of Nagorno-Karabakh.

“A few days ago, in the Foreign Relations Committee of the US Senate, Yuri Kim,Acting Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs, stated that “the United States will not tolerate any attempts to “ethnically cleanse” Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh”.Now, Azerbaijan has started a large-scale aggression and military operation against the peaceful people of Nagorno-Karabakh. It is the US’s turn now as to what measures will be used to stop the aggression and military attack on the trapped and starving people. Naturally, Azerbaijan is committing another war crime by killing peaceful and unprotected people in an addition to ethnic cleansing. All this must be condemned and stopped with all its consequences,” Marukyan said in a post on X, addressing US President Joe Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, French President Emmanuel Macron, President of the European Council Charles Michel and others.
