SHARMAZANOV: ATTACK ON KESAB IS OBVIOUS THREAT TO REGIONAL PEACE
Tuesday,
March
25
The neighboring country continues to violate the ceasefire, stubbornly
rejecting the OSCE Minsk Group Co-chairs' calls for a peaceful
settlement of the Karabakh conflict, the vice speaker of Armenia's
National Assembly Edward Sharmazanov said in the parliament today.
In his words, a striking demonstration is the death of serviceman
Garnik Torosian on March 24. He was shot dead by a sniper on the Line
of Contact of the armed forces of Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan. "It
is obvious that all this is a result of Azerbaijan's policy of fascism
and Armenophobia, although they call their society tolerant. I think
many will recall that prior to World War II the Nazis called their
movement Christian. Comment is superfluous," Sharmazanov said.
When speaking about the recent events in the Armenian-populated town
of Kesab near the Syrian-Turkish border, Sharmazanov quoted Armenian
President Serzh Sargsyan as saying that "it was the third evacuation
of the Armenians of Kesab. It is a most serious challenge to the 21st
century minority rights protection mechanisms".
"No doubt, the armed attack on Kesab is a flagrant violation of human
rights. In addition to posing an obvious threat to regional peace,
it is also a signal for the United Nations and other organizations
on human rights protection," he noted.
We would remind you that on the morning of March 21 attacks were
launched on Armenian-populated town of Kesab in Syria from three border
points in Turkey. Part of the Kesab population moved to mountains to
escape danger, while others were temporarily evacuated to Latakia.
