Incredible. I wonder what the story behind the story is. Any insight?
Strikingly, Uruguay was the first country in the world to recognize the Armenian genocide…
The truth shall prevail whether in Uruguay or elsewhere. Historical facts may be denied, but they may not be changed. Artsakh was and will always be an Armenian territory. The thousands of years of history may not be erased, simply because OIL says that it is not as it is portrayed. I salute Uruguay government for stating what they know, and not what OIL says they should know.
Indeed the historical facts of all Armenian lands be it Eastern Turkey, Armenia proper and Artsakh cannot be erased neither for OIL from Azerbaijan nor because of the bullying by Turkey. Artsakh, Armenia proper, Eastern Turkey (all of the Western Armenian Highlands) and Javakhk has been Armenian lands belonging to the indigenous people of all Armenians for over 5,000 years. I thank you Foreign Minister Luis Almagro and the Uruguay govenrment to come forth and recognize Artsakh as an independent state, belonging and to be part of Armenia, because you are well aware of the true facts.
This may be the beginning of a change in international attitude towards Artshakh which in time can turn the tide of the unfavourable UN/SC resolutions that consider Artsakh as part of the territoriy of Azerbaijan. As sit appears these resolutions form a pretext for Azerbaijan’s warmongering and as such do not contribute to peace and security in the region.
Thank you Luis Almagro, great freind of Armenian people.
Arshag:
There’s no word in the UN Security Council’s resolutions that’d consider Artsakh as part of the territory of Azerbaijan. In fact, the resolutions call upon the government of Azerbaijan to cease hostilities against Artsakh. Also, there’s no mentioning of the Republic of Armenia in them, only “local Armenian forces”. These resolutions cannot form a pretext for Azerbaijan’s warmongering. Their warmongering comes from an immature national identity and false belief that their oil and revenues from it can bring them a victory over Armenians. In fact, if Azeris they start it, they may lose another historically Armenian territory that was transferred to newly-created Azerbaijan by Stalin in the 1920s, Nakhichevan.
Uruguay-HOORAAYYYYYY…. Friend of Armenia, Justice and Truth… May God Bless Uruguay and Artsakh/Armenia…
It is time Arstakh finally get reunited her rightful parent.. she can no longer be an orphan like many Armenian orphans left without home after the Ottoman Turks Genocide of the Eastern and Western Armenians….
Strange silence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia.
