One of these documents depicts
the calculation of the damage to the destroyed garden of a resident of Davit
Bek village of Kapan. The other document depicts a contract for the lease of a
plot of land for agricultural purposes by a resident of Vardenis, but he is
deprived of that opportunity.
The documents serve as
examples proving that: The legal rights to property and social security of
these residents of Gegharkunik and Syunik provinces have been violated due to
the illegal presence of the Azerbaijani armed forces.
The Azerbaijani authorities
must be held accountable and compensate for the damage caused to all our
villagers.
They must compensate, since
besides the serious dangerous to their security, they have disturbed the normal
and peaceful life of the people, and deprived them of the opportunity to earn a
family income.
These facts prove once again
that border issues cannot be considered in isolation from the rights of border
residents.
Regardless of the political mechanism
being considered in these matters, it cannot succeed if it does not take into consideration
the human rights of the border residents.
We must make use of all the
opportunities. Without despair and with consistent steps, we must achieve the
restoration of the violated rights.
Impunity makes the risk of
recurrence of more serious violations real.
