The parliament of the Netherlands has adopted a resolution, urging the Government to condemn Turkey’s militaristic rhetoric that supports Azerbaijan fighting against Artsakh, ARMENPRESS reports the resolution was initiated by Sadet Karabulut, member of the Social Party of the Netherlands.

Given that the military operations have again flared up with great intensity in Nagorno Karabakh and that Turkey encourages Azerbaijan with its militaristic rhetoric to continue the war, the parliament urges the Government to condemn Turkey’s militaristic rhetoric and call on Turkey in the sidelines of the EU to make efforts for ceasefire and negotiations.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
