Armenia HRD: No room for peace talks as Azerbaijan "not being honest"

March 17 2022

PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian Human Rights Defender Kristinne Grigoryan believes there is no room for peace talks with Azerbaijan at the moment because Baku "is not being honest", Pastinfo reports.

Grigoryan made the remarks on Thursday, March 17, as Armenia has initiated processes to mend ties with both Azerbaijan and Turkey. 100,000 residents in Karabakh have been deprived of gas for 10 days now, and because the pipeline has been damaged in territories currently under Baku's control, the Azerbaijani military won't allow the Armenian side to eliminate the problem.

The Azerbaijan armed forces have also been violating the ceasefire and using loudspeakers to spread panic among the population of Nagorno-Karabakh, attempting to force them to leave their homes.

Grigoryan said she recently visited the Karabakh village of Khramort where residents are facing serious psychological and physical attacks from the Azerbaijani military. According to her, Azerbaijan's policy of pressure, intimidation and eviction of Armenians is continuous.

The Ombudsperson said she is planning to take a trip to the southern Armenian province of Syunik in early April.
