HRD calls for the exclusion of discriminatory and hate speech from the campaign

The human rights defender has issued a message urging the political forces and public actors participating in the pre-election campaign to exclude labeling and discriminatory expressions in their public speech.


“The human rights defender once again calls on all political forces and other public actors participating in the pre-election campaign to exclude in their public speech any speech that labels, discriminates and spreads hatred on the basis of gender, disability (including having mental health problems), ethnicity, religious beliefs and other similar grounds,” the message says.

Emil Lazarian: “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
