    ARMENIA'S REP AT U.N. CONDEMNS AZERBAIJAN'S RACIST POLICY

    Armenia's Permanent Representative at the UN, Ambassador Karen Nazaryan
    delivered a speech at the 67th session of the U.N. General Assembly.

    His speech concerned the elimination of racism, racial discrimination,
    xenophobia and related intolerance.

    Mr Nazaryan said that Azerbaijan keep on inciting hatred for
    Armenians at the highest state level. He drew the U.N member-states'
    attention to official Baku's anti-Armenian rhetoric and pointed out
    the international community's response. Mr Nazaryan's speech was
    focused on the pardoning of Azeri officer Ramil Safarov, which runs
    counter to a number of international legal and humanitarian norms,
    being a challenge to the entire human rights system.

    Ambassador Nazaryan noted that the pardoning of Ramil Safarov by
    Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev is a flagrant example and a
    follow-up to the crime, which is the result of the xenophobic and
    racist policy Azerbaijan has been pursuing for decades.

    Ambassador Nazaryan called on the international community to raised
    its voice against such unpardonable behavior, which poses a threat
    to regional stability.
