YEREVAN, AUGUST 30, ARMENPRESS. Canadian Senator Leo Housakos has called out the West for “twiddling its thumbs” while Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh are “trapped in desperate circumstances by Azerbaijani dictator Ilham Aliyev.”

“Over 120,000 ethnic Armenians are trapped in desperate circumstances by Azerbaijani dictator Ilham Aliyev whilst the West twiddles its thumbs and gives him a wink. This is shameful!” Housakos, a former Speaker of the Canadian Senate, said in a post on X.

He shared an article by Paul Brian titled “The crisis we ignore” calling on the international community to step in immediately and put on pressure to get the Lachin corridor open again.
