U.N. should act against Armenia
On behalf of 400,000 Azerbaijani Americans, I urge the United
Nations to start taking serious steps to implement the United Nations
resolutions calling for immediate withdrawal of Armenian military
forces from Azerbaijan's territories.
Sixteen years ago, Armenia conducted a war against Azerbaijan. The
ethnic Azerbaijani population of Nagorno-Karabagh and surrounding
districts of Azerbaijan were ethnically cleansed from the occupied
territories, and have been unable to return to their ancestral homes.
May 8 is the 17th anniversary of the destruction of the historic and
venerated town of Shusha, which was once the centerpiece of a vibrant
Azerbaijani classical music scene and home to the first opera in the
Middle East. Now it lays in waste, a victim of Armenian destruction,
occupation and systematic ethnic cleansing.
On behalf of Azerbaijani Americans and Azerbaijanis worldwide, I
implore the United Nations to do whatever is necessary and possible to
move this situation along to its rightful resolution, from implementing
the United Nations resolutions to stopping the Armenian occupation,
removing Armenian military forces, allowing the return of displaced
Azerbaijanis and returning all POWs and MIAs.
