The Azerbaijani community of the Nagorno-Karabakh region has issued an appeal in connection with the so-called “elections” held in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan,Trend reports on April 1.

“In the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan on March 31, 2020, another “election show” was organized, called the “presidential and parliamentary elections”. This step of occupier Armenia and its accomplice – the puppet regime has no legal basis, is a big blur on the name of democracy and elections,” the appeal states.

As noted in the document, now when the world is facing a coronavirus pandemic, and people’s lives are in danger, Armenia and its puppet regime, remaining committed to their essence, even in this situation continue illegal activities, conducting the show called “elections”:

“This is another indicator of “values” on which Armenia and the occupant regime are based; and their “attitude” towards the members of the Armenian community of Azerbaijan’s Nagorno-Karabakh region, which they hold captive, confirms how much indifferently the regime approaches to the lives and destinies of these people. We believe the Armenians living in Nagorno-Karabakh will finally understand that they are a tool in the hands of Armenia and the puppet regime which don’t value them, turning them into a victim of fake games instead of protecting them from the threat of pandemic,” the appeal states.

The appeal stresses that the holding of so-called “elections” in the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region is a gross violation of the fundamental human rights of Azerbaijanis who were subjected to ethnic cleansing and expelled from their native lands:

“The UN, OSCE, other world organizations and the international community have previously made statement in connection with these falsified “elections”, condemned the illegal elections in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan, declaring the inviolability of the internationally recognized borders of our country,” the appeal notes.

“These so-called “elections” are another strike to the negotiation process, and serves to escalation of the situation. We are convinced that the Armenians living in Nagorno-Karabakh will participate in the legal elections, which will be held in accordance with the Constitution and other laws of Azerbaijan together with Azerbaijanis who will return after the restoration of the internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan,” the appeal states.

By Leman Zeynalova – Trend:

The so-called “presidential and parliamentary elections” held on March 31st, 2020, sponsored by the fascist government of Armenia inside the sovereign territory of Azerbaijan, is a blatant act of provocation, Peter M. Tase, strategic adviser on international affairs and public diplomacy to governments, universities and corporations in Europe and the Americas, told Trend.

He noted that Yerevan is scoffing the four UN Security Council Resolutions, and orchestrating a mockery to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

It demonstrates once again the aspirations of Armenian leadership to maintain the current status-quo inside the sovereign territory of Azerbaijan and foster ambiguous statecraft practices that encourage greater levels of poverty inside Armenia, the expert believes.

He said it is becoming a deep concern that the international community is not swiftly acting and making condemning public statements on this matter.

The policy pursued by Armenian authorities in this region of Azerbaijan is a serious threat to European security and serves as a dangerous precedent for other conflict zones in Europe, Tase believes.

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. As a result of the ensuing war, Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.

The 1994 ceasefire agreement was followed by peace negotiations. Armenia has not yet implemented four UN Security Council resolutions on withdrawal of its armed forces from Nagorno Karabakh and the surrounding districts.
