Armenia – Feb 16 2022


Armenian organizations of Israel Noyan Tapan headed by David Galfayan and Nairi headed by Artem Chernomoryan sent an open appeal to Israeli President Isaac Herzog in which they appeal to the head of the state to influence Azerbaijan to stop the destruction of the Armenian cultural heritage on the Armenian territories passed under Azerbaijani control.

Mendel Korsunsky, political analyst and spokesman for Noyan Tapan, told NEWS.am. In his words, the address to the President mentions the fact that the Azerbaijani government is trying to destroy the Armenian cultural and historical heritage in the region and the attempt to "albanize" Armenian churches and monasteries.

They expressed hope that despite the fact that during the military actions Israel officially supported Azerbaijan on the basis of its political interests, supplying weapons, nevertheless, Israel will not want to be an ally of the state, which pursues a policy of cultural genocide.

A number of international organizations and European parliamentarians have called on Azerbaijan to stop the destruction of the Armenian cultural heritage, but official Baku remains deaf to the appeals of the international community.

“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
