Britain wasn`t worse than Azerbaijan is, and Americans weren`t better than Artsakh people are - Artsakh statseman to U.S. ambassador

ArmInfo. Former state minister of Artsakh Artsak Beglaryan osted the following message on his Facebook account:

"Sorry to hear that the U.S. Ambassador to Armenia is ignoring the most important collective right of the people of Artsakh to self-determination and doesn't seem to understand or care about the Azerbaijani ethnic cleansing policy.

"It's clear that no security or rights can be guaranteed under Azerbaijan's dictatorial subjugation, & such misguided statements only encourage further crimes.

"P.S. Happy U.S. Independence day, Ms. Ambassador!

"On this symbolic day let me be brave enough to ask you why Americans couldn't find security & rights under British colonial rule, even though they shared the same ethnic & religious background & were not indigenous to America, unlike the people of Artsakh.

"Considering the history, values and the emphasis on freedoms and rights in the U.S., it seems only natural to support the struggle of the Artsakh people for their own freedoms & rights in their native land.

"Britain wasn't worse than Azerbaijan is, and Americans weren't better than the Artsakh people are!"

U.S. Ambassador to Armenia Kristina Kvien expressed the confidence that that Artsakh people can live in security in Azerbaijan.
