Spent several months in #Armenia earlier this year. Sad about the violence in #Artsakh/NK. Hope international community can help mediate peaceful talks!.
We call on the worldwide #international community and on International #HumanRights organizations to take all steps and direct all of their efforts to prevent this military aggression and violation of the peace and security for the civilian population of #NK. #StrongArtsakh.
