🤔Here’s Viktor Orbán bowing to Ilham Aliyev in Egypt. Their close ties date back to 2012 when Orbán sent home Ramil Safarov, who murdered an Armenian officer with an axe, to Azerbaijan—where he got a hero’s welcome. Meanwhile, $7 million was wired from an Azeri fund to a 🇭🇺bank.

and our rights have still not been restored to this day. And that’s why I am in Berlin.

From my mother’s side, my grandparents are from occupied Nakhijevan, where Armenians are prohibited from visiting their indigenous lands. From my father’s side, my great-grandparents are from occupied Western Armenia, from where Armenians were deported in 1915.

Free Azerbaijani political prisoners.
While Putin asked for arrested Spuntik journalists to be released, and succeeded, Trump asks the same for the Armenian prisoners in Azerbaijan. Azerbaijani political prisoners basically got "orphaned", no one cares about them, not even E.U. is putting an actual effort

Brothers in genocide. Azerbaijan provides oil for the genocide in Palestine. Israel provides weapons and diplomatic support to Azerbaijan for its genocide in Artsakh.

The *Ghazanchetsots* Armenian Cathedral was built in 1722, it was torched in 1905 and 1920, bombed in 1992 and 2020. Its crosses were removed by the Aliyev regime. It stands as an empty shell. The Zangilan Mosque was opened in 2024… This isn’t coexistence, it’s replacement.
Yesterday I visited Gazanci Cathedral ⛪️ Shusha Karabakh & today I visited the Mosque 🕌 in Zangilan. Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 has a strong track record in religious co-existence amongst all faiths.

Tehran to inaugurate a metro station next to the St. Sarkis Armenian Cathedral featuring Armenian writing and imagery
Tehran just inaugurated the Holy Virgin Mary Metro Station, featuring Christian murals near St. Sarkis Armenian Cathedral, serving Iran’s 100,000-strong Armenian Christian community. A symbolic nod to coexistence: Christians, Jews, & Zoroastrians are constitutionally protected &

A team of archaeologists working in the mountains of Turkey has uncovered a tomb believed to belong to Ashot I Kuropalates, also known as Ashot the Great, who had Armenian origins from the Bagratuni dynasty. The discovery was made beneath the ruins of the Church of Saints Peter

That’s like saying Palestinians lived peacefully before October 7 🫠
@MakichyanA Justice is Turkey. Everyone was living peaceful under the Ottomans until imperialist powers provoked minorities for rebellion.

Turkey has violated Greek (EU) airspace more than 15.000 times in the last decade. Zero EU condemnation - they want to give Turkey more money to threaten Greece with! Russia violated Baltic airspace seven (7) times and the whole world came upside down. What hypocrites...

Saint George was Greek, he lived in Cappadocia centuries before “Turkey” even existed. Calling him “of Türkiye” is historical revisionism. Turkey is a colonial state built on stolen indigenous Armenian, Greek & Assyrian lands. Can’t believe The Guardian actually published this.

Türkiye. They called it Türkiye. Genuinely insane. That's the name Erdoganists use.

In recent years, Germany tied Europe's energy security with Russia. When it realized the mistake, it was too late. Now it's trying to do the same in the defense industrial sector with Turkey. When it realizes the mistake, it will once again be too late.
🇩🇪🇬🇷 BERLIN TO ATHENS: DROP THE BLOCK, LET TURKEY IN Germany’s foreign minister Johann Wadephul is flying to Athens with one message: stop stonewalling Turkey. At stake: the EU’s €150 billion SAFE defense program, meant to rebuild Europe’s military muscle. Turkey's been frozen

No. I support Kurdish resistance, but I don’t support the idea of creating an ethno-Kurdish state on lands that also belong to indigenous Armenians, Assyrians, and Greeks. It’s time for us to realize that we must unite and seek something that can bring justice for everyone.

it’s literally a platform created by a russian oligarch. what a disappointment.
