Arman Tatoyan: Azerbaijan seeks to occupy Armenia under humanitarian guise

The Azerbaijani “peace-loving” government propaganda has set out new occupation demands to Armenia, says former Ombudsman Arman Tatoyan, the head of the Tatoyan Foundation. Below is his statement posted on social media on Tuesday.

“Accordingly, two amendments related to the so-called “resettlement of West Azerbaijanis” should be made in the Constitution of Armenia:

1) ensuring the safety of “West Azerbaijanis” with the guarantee of a foreign mission. Armed forces from the country that is an ally of Azerbaijan and enjoys their trust should be deployed in Armenia (it is the country, which country it is, right?).

According to the propoganda, since Azerbaijan does not trust Armenia, at some stage the “West Azerbaijanis” themselves should have the opportunity to organize their own security by creating armed units.

2) Ensuring the right of “Western Azerbaijanis” to education in the Azerbaijani language.

These proposals are new developments of the “West Azerbaijan” occupation concept, which are based on an absolute lies that cannot be ignored. Moreover, various Azerbaijani official sources state that the number of those subject to “return” is 300,000.

“These points show that the peace-making intention of the Azerbaijani authorities is false, it is a veil for the outside world. In fact, a policy of occupying Armenia is being pursued. it’s just done under humanitarian guise.

This is what was done to Artsakh. at first, with the real purpose of ethnic cleansing was the isolation of Artsakh by “eco-activists”, then the installation of the Azerbaijani checkpoint and the complete blocking of the roads leading to Artsakh, and after that armed attacks against Artsakh.

All this was shown on “Baku TV” of the Azerbaijani authorities, where it is “justified” by presenting false facts.”
