Artsakh Will Not Be Part of Azerbaijan: Araik Harutyunyan

Genocide is being perpetrated against a people that began its struggle for the right to live freely in its own country in 1988, said the President of Artsakh, Araik Harutyunyan, during a press conference.

Highlighting the involvement of Turkey and international terrorism, the President stated, "We expect the support of the civilized world not just through calls and statements, but also with tangible actions." He pointed out that international terrorism is infiltrating the region and emphasized that there are many facts supporting this claim.

"There isn't a single area in Stepanakert that hasn't been hit by rocket shells multiple times, even the church in Shushi. After all this, they expect an inappropriate response from Artsakh, meaning that we should agree to their stipulated demands. That will not happen. Artsakh will not be part of Azerbaijan," declared Araik Harutyunyan.
