Washington DC, Oct 1, 2023 – The Foundation for India and Indian Diaspora Studies (FIIDS) expresses its deep sadness and concern over the forced evacuation of over 120,000 Christian Armenians from their ancestral homeland of Artsakh by Azerbaijan.
FIIDS strongly condemns Azerbaijan for the violence and human rights violations perpetrated against the Armenian people. We are deeply saddened and concerned by the forced evacuation of Christian Armenians from Artsakh. This is a gross violation of human rights and international law.
FIIDS calls upon the UN and international community to take immediate action to immediately stop the atrocities in Artsakh, mediate a peaceful resolution to the conflict and ensure the safe return of the displaced Armenians to their homes. FIIDS urges these powers to stop Azerbaijan from its goal of ethnically cleansing Christian Armenian population from Artsakh.
FIIDS stands in solidarity with the Armenian Christian community and supports their right to self-determination and a life free from fear and persecution.
