Demonstrators in Berlin call on EU leaders to intervene and stop Azeri genocidal actions in Nagorno-Karabakh

YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS. A demonstration was held September 23 outside the Bundestag in Berlin, Germany, demanding the German government and EU leaders to intervene and stop Azerbaijan’s genocidal actions against the people of Nagorno-Karabakh.

The demonstration was organized by the Armenian community. A group of German politicians, students and representatives of various organizations joined the demonstration.

Lilit Kocharyan, the organizer of the protest, said, “Your participation is highly important to show that we are demanding justice for the people of Artsakh who are now suffering. People in Artsakh are trapped, there’s no contact with them, we don’t know what’s happening with the people, whether they are still alive.”

Presenting the dire situation in Nagorno-Karabakh, where there is no food, medication or other essential supplies, Kocharyan said that the people of Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) are being subjected to genocide.

The demonstrators said they expect EU leaders to take effective and urgent measures to stop the Armenian genocide.

“No action has been taken, only statements addressed to Azerbaijan are being made, we need urgent steps,” she said.

The protesters were holding posters saying “Save Artsakh”, “Stop Aliyev Regime”, “Stop the Azeri aggression”, “ Stop the Ethnic Cleansing Against Armenians of Artsakh,” and others.
