Azerbaijan protracts return of captives, grossly violates international demands – Armenia’s Ombudsman

Aysor, Armenia

Armenian human rights defender reports that yesterday the office sent a detailed report to the UN Human Rights Council informing that the Azerbaijani authorities are protracting the return of captives and grossly violates the international demands.

“The report was sent to the UN Human Rights Council in a separate procedure. Such opportunity have only national institutions of human rights having “A” international status,” Tatoyan wrote.

He stressed that the report clearly notes that the Azerbaijani authorities abuse the legal procedures and politicize the issue of return of captives.

“With this they make our society and first of all the families of the captives suffer, play with their feelings,” Tatoyan noted.

Emil Lazarian: “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
