Armenia –

Armenian opposition MP Tigran Abrahamyan has deplored the world’s silence over Azerbaijan’s blockade of relief supplies to Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).

Azerbaijan has banned the deliveries of humanitarian cargoes to Artsakh since Thursday.

“In addition to the fact that Armenia’s gas and electricity supplies to Artsakh have been cut off for several months now, Azerbaijan has recently banned the supply of basic foodstuffs to Artsakh, causing a sharp deterioration of the humanitarian situation,” Abrahamyan, secretary of the opposition Pativ Unem faction, wrote on Facebook on Monday.

“Russian peacekeepers are negotiating with Azerbaijani officials to reopen the road connecting Armenia to Artsakh, but so far to no avail.

“The international actors, who echo Pashinyan’s statement on the surrender of Artsakh to Azerbaijan at every opportunity, now remain silent,” he said.

“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
