ASK MINISTER CHAMPAGNE TO IMMEDIATELY CONDEMN AZERBAIJANI AGGRESSION

**Please take one minute to e-mail Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Hon. François-Philippe Champagne asking him to immediately condemn Azerbaijan’s aggression towards Armenia and uphold Canada’s support for Armenia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Since Sunday, July 12, Azerbaijani armed forces have made numerous attempts at breaching the internationally recognized borders of the Republic of Armenia, violating Armenia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. The ongoing attempts of infiltration and military provocation are directed towards the northeastern Tavush province of Armenia. Numerous casualties have been recorded and the Azerbaijani armed forces have targeted various civilian positions.

Despite the ongoing situation surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and international calls for ceasefire by the United Nations, Azerbaijani authorities are continuing their military aggression, constantly threatening resumption of war and violating international law. It is clear that this aggression and attempt to resume active hostilities are largely being carried out by Azerbaijani authorities to divert their citizens’ attention from their domestic failures in regards to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Any violation of the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia is unacceptable and must be categorically condemned by Canada and the international community.

AZERBAIJAN MUST BE CONDEMNED AND CONTAINED

Message Dear Minister Champagne, I am writing to you today to express my deep and profound concern regarding the attempts by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces to infiltrate the borders of Armenia on Sunday, July 12, 2020 and the subsequent escalation in violence that has resulted in numerous casualties and the targeting of civilian population. Despite a global pandemic and international calls for a ceasefire by the United Nations, Azerbaijani authorities are continuing their military aggression, constantly threatening a resumption of war and risking the possibility of large civilian casualties. This all comes a few days after President Aliyev of Azerbaijan deemed the OSCE mediation efforts as meaningless and threatened a full out offensive. Any violation of the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia is unacceptable and must be categorically and forcefully condemned by Canada. Additionally, the statement made by the Turkish Foreign Ministry - unconditionally supporting the illegal actions of the Azerbaijani army - is deplorable and must be addressed accordingly. I urge you to remain vigilant and immediately issue a statement on behalf of the Government of Canada, condemning Azerbaijan’s blatant aggression towards Armenia and uphold Canada’s support for Armenia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. This is not the time to call on both sides to de-escalate, because it is noticeably clear that Azerbaijan is the sole aggressor. If we fail to properly address the situation and condemn the aggressor, we will further empower them to continue committing their crimes. Now is the time to act, before it becomes too late. Thank you. Sincerely yours,

Δ
