GSISD chief: Khojaly genocide one of most inhumane acts in modern history

    POLITICS  26 February 2023 - 14:55

    Global Strategic Institute for Sustainable Development (GSISD) Executive Director Mohammed Shakeel Ahmed has said that the Khojaly genocide committed by Armenia against Azerbaijanis is one of the most terrible and tragic inhumane acts in the modern history of humankind.

    "Today, we are in solidarity with the Azerbaijani people. Together, we oppose genocide in all its forms and manifestations. As we reaffirm our determination to prevent the recurrence of such atrocities, we are witnessing dangerous trends in xenophobia, racism and intolerance in many parts of the world. The roots of genocide, such as violence and hatred, offend our values and threaten human rights, social stability, sustainability and peace," Report quotes him as saying.

    Ahmed said genocide is an evil that, wherever it occurs, must be identified, stopped and confronted to protect people and the planet as this is the only way to peace and prosperity.

    "I call on all political, religious and civil society leaders to stop expressing hatred and discrimination and work to mitigate and address the root causes that undermine social cohesion creating conditions for hatred and intolerance," he said.

    Ahmed also noted that the Khojaly tragedy is another reminder that efforts must be made to build a harmonious future together for all people around the world: "Together we can make the planet more inclusive, a place for a decent life."
