At the March 19 session of the 46th term of the UN Human Rights
Council, a special video message of the Republic of Armenia (RA) Human Rights
Defender was broadcast setting forth the following:
During the September-November war of 2020, the Azerbaijani armed
forces pursued a policy of ethnic cleansing and genocide.
The video message pointed out the existence of a policy of
anti-Armenianism in Azerbaijan with the tacit support of the authorities, which
is encouraged by cultural, sports and other public figures.
All of this is based on objective evidence.
The video emphasizes that since September 27, the monitoring of
both Azerbaijani and Turkish media and social networks has registered mass
hatred, calls for murder, violence and torture, which also target Armenian
children.
Ethnically motivated crimes against Armenians are encouraged by
the Azerbaijani authorities; and, these crimes have been confirmed by ECHR
judgments.
PS: Only national human rights organizations with "A"
international status have the opportunity to deliver such video messages.
