ArmInfo. The armed forces of Azerbaijan deliberately attack civilian infrastructures, shelling them. This is stated in the official address of President of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia Alen Simonyan to the international partners.
The official address issued by the press service of the National Assembly emphasizes that Azerbaijan continues to intensively shell Armenian positions in the direction of Sotk, Vardenis, Goris, Kapan, Artanis, Ishkhanasar, Jermuk and adjacent settlements, using unmanned aerial vehicles and mortars. "There are casualties on the Armenian side, including among civilians. The Armenian side suffered significant losses in military equipment. The armed forces of Azerbaijan do not stop their offensive attempts," the appeal emphasizes.
The NA Speaker drew the attention of international partners to the fact that in recent days, on a daily basis, the military-political leadership of Azerbaijan has been creating an information base for this military provocation, spreading false information every day about alleged shelling by the Armenian side. Alen Simonyan recalled that this behavior is a well-known Azerbaijani style, which manifested itself after the 2020 44-day war in Artsakh. <In connection with the aggression of Azerbaijan against the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia, the Armenian government appealed to the UN Security Council, the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) and the Russian Federation. It is obvious that the egregious and illegal actions of Azerbaijan became possible because of the silence of the international community. The lack of a purposeful response and adequate actions today has led to a more aggressive policy of the Azerbaijani authorities >, Alen Simonyan concluded, calling for measures to be taken to resolve this vital issue and help stop Azerbaijan's aggression, which undermines stability and security of the entire region.
The RA NA President officially addressed to the President of the Inter-Parliamentary Union Duarte Pacheco and the Secretary General Martin Chungong, to the Chairman of the CSTO Parliamentary Assembly Vyacheslav Volodin, to the Chair of the IPA CIS Council Valentina Matvienko and to the President of the European Parliament Roberta Metsola.
