The Washington-based Freedom House think tank has strongly condemned Azerbaijan’s violent attacks in Nagorno-Karabakh and warned that any attempt to forcibly change the region’s demographics is illegal and unacceptable.
“We strongly condemn the Azerbaijani govt’s violent attacks in Nagorno-Karabakh, heightening the risk of ethnic cleansing against the region’s Armenian population. Any attempt to forcibly change the region’s demographics is illegal & unacceptable. We urge the international community to protect the civilian population in Nagorno-Karabakh, prevent crimes against humanity in the region, & hold the Azerbaijani govt accountable for the wellbeing of Armenians in the region,” Freedom House said in a statement on X.
