LARISA ALAVERDIAN CALLS ON TO CONSIDER BAKU MASSACRES AS MASS
VIOLATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS
YEREVAN, January 20 (Noyan Tapan). The statement of Elizabeth Jones,
Assistant US Secretary of State for Europe and Euroasia, and, in
particular, unfortunate formulation concerning Nagorno Karabakh is the
consequence of Armenia's wrong policy. Armen Aghayan, Political
Secretary of "In Defence of Liberated Territories" public initiative,
Karabakh war participant, declared this during the January 20 press
conference dedicated to the 15th anniversary of Armenian massacres in
Baku. According to him, "first of all we are to blame because the
Karabakh issue is solved in Moscow or Washington." Armenia should
oppose an exact national program on settlement of liberated
territories to the processes taking place at present in the issue of
Karabakh settlement, Aghayan considers. At the same time he admitted
that the authorities of the country implement such a program
partially. Larisa Alaverdian, RA Ombudsperson, also participated in
the press conference. She acquainted the participants of the press
conference with the statement of her Azeri colleague concerning the
events that occured in Baku 15 years ago. Larisa Alaverdian expressed
bewilderment in connection with the fact that Azerbaijan's Ombudsman
calls on the international community to consider these events in the
political field and not in the field of violation of human
rights. "I'll spare no efforts to remain in the field of human
rights. In January 1990 mass violations of human rights were committed
in Baku. And the UN Commission on Human Rights didn't answer numerous
applications of Armenians who suffered from Baku violence," RA
Ombudsperson declared. According to her, without strong pressure of
the public it'll be impossible to achieve partial restoration of
rights of the people who suffered from Baku massacres.
