Arman Tatoyan, Head of the \u201cWings of Unity\u201d Political Initiative and former Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) of Armenia, sent a message to US Vice President JD Vance on the occasion of his planned visit to Armenia.<\/p>\n
The message states as follows, in particular:<\/p>\n
“During your upcoming visit to Armenia, you may be told many things, but not about the primary issues that truly concern our society.<\/p>\n
With the greatest respect, I would like to kindly remind you of the Armenian prisoners of war and hostages illegally held in Azerbaijan, as well as the torture they have endured. They are Christians whose only \u2018crime\u2019 is their faith and national origin.<\/p>\n
Since 2021, Azerbaijan has also occupied more than 200 square kilometers of the sovereign territory of Armenia, as a result of which our border population lives under constant anxiety and their security remains severely undermined.<\/p>\n
Our team also possesses evidence regarding the ethnic cleansing carried out by the Azerbaijani armed forces against Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) in September 2023, as a result of which 120,000 people were forcibly displaced from their centuries-old homeland within just a few days.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
