Armenia – Feb 15 2022

Commenting on the scandalous initiative of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Culture to destroy and appropriate Armenian historical and cultural heritage in the occupied territories of Artsakh, members of European Parliament (MEPs) condemned the initiative of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Culture to present Armenian churches as Albanian and eliminate Armenian traces.

"International community should act now. We need to condemn and halt any attempt of distortion and destruction of Armenian historical-cultural heritage in Artsakh by Azerbaijan," a Cypriot MEP Demetris Papadakis wrote on Twitter.

Dutch MP Peter van Dalen wrote on Twitter that Aliyev's crimes have no limits and that the European Parliament, François Alphonse (Member of the European Parliament) and Sylvie Guillaume (Member of the European Parliament) should condemn the cultural genocide.
