Tatevik Hayrapetyan: During the four-day war in Artsakh, we witnessed  the obvious terrorist acts of the Azerbaijani army

ArmInfo.During the four-day war in April 2016, unleashed by Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh, we all witnessed obvious terrorist acts by the Azerbaijani army. Citizens  should not and cannot be targeted even in a brutal war, but this is  still happening. Although, according to the Geneva Conventions,  terrorism and violence against civilians are prohibited even during  hostilities.  Tatevik Hayrapetyan, MP from the My Step faction, said  this in her speech to PACE.

Addressing her Azerbaijani colleagues, the MP said: "By falsification  of history you cannot change reality, and the reality is that  Nagorno-Karabakh, or Artsakh, belongs to people who have always lived  and will live on the land to which they belong and where their  ancestors lived since ancient times. These people have repeatedly  proved that they are able to protect themselves from aggression, to  protect their safety and the right to life in every possible way. "

In her speech, Hayrapetyan noted that terrorism remains one of the  most serious threats to peace, security and stability, and the  realization of human rights. She emphasized that, unfortunately,  today we are witnessing new terrorist acts, as a result of which the  lives of many innocent people are being destroyed.  <So far, victims  of terrorism continue to fight to ensure that their voices are heard,  their demands are met, their rights are protected. Victims usually  feel forgotten and rejected immediately after the terrorist acts,  which can have profound psychological consequences for them. The  victims of the attacks need multilateral assistance, including  physical, psychological, moral, social and financial support, "the  MPemphasized.

She stated that we are all witnesses of terrorist acts, especially  during wars. Syria is also a clear example of this. According to the  MP, the world cannot be indifferent to the manifestations of terror,  which must be harshly suppressed.
