EU Reporter: Armenian propaganda claims of genocide in Garabagh are not credible

The EU Reporter website published an article by James Wilson debunking Armenian propaganda lies about the "genocide" in Garabagh. Caliber.Az reprints excerpts from this article.

Counter-terrorist activities carried out by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces in Garabagh confirmed suspicions that the separatists were using humanitarian transport corridors not to transport medicine and food, but to supply weapons. As Israeli Begin-Sadat think tank points out, one of the targets hit by the Azerbaijani UAVs was an expensive SA-15 Gauntlet system, which costs at least $20 million. Thus, it turns out that Azerbaijan’s claims that the separatists were using the humanitarian corridor from Armenia to deliver weapons turned out to be true. The so-called “blockade”, which the Armenian side called “genocide” and “creation of a ghetto” is the responsibility of the separatist leaders, who were preparing for war and demonstrably failing to care for their own people. 

So the Azerbaijani army had no choice — no country can tolerate 5,000 armed separatists blowing up civilian vehicles with landmines on its own territory. 

No “genocide” took place, no “ethnic cleansing» happened. And the former ICC judge Moreno-Ocampo, hired by the “government” of the unrecognised enclave, was simply fabricating claims in his dubious “report on genocide in Garabagh”. As a Ukrainian specialist on hybrid warfare Yevhen Mahda pointed out in his article in El Mundo, that Moreno-Ocampo’s assessment “was widely reported in the global media, creating a corresponding information backdrop ahead of the UN Security Council meeting on August 16. It was held at Armenia's request to discuss the situation in Garabagh. An attentive observer will understand that the UN Security Council is currently unable to make any binding decisions. However, raising the issue in New York brings it to the attention of the world”.

”Moreno-Ocampo’s “report”, despite being trashed by a genuine expert — Rodney Dixon — was used by US Senator Bob Menendez to criticise Azerbaijan. This was the sole purpose of this report.  

But this is now history. Will there be a “genocide” in Garabagh after the militants are eliminated? According to the Armenian prime minister, who is an expert on ghettos: “At this moment, our assessment is that there is no direct threat to the civilian population of Nagorno-Garabagh”, he said on September 21. He added that ceasefire was being maintained despite multiple anonymous reports of “atrocities” and “concentration camps for Armenians” in Garabagh.  Pashinyan also refuted fake news about “attempts to block the exit” from the enclave by Azerbaijanis, noting that Armenia is ready to repatriate all those willing to leave Garabagh. 

There are still other foreign forces that are trying in every possible way to frighten the local Armenian population into panic. The French media, for example, are tirelessly pelting readers with stories about “military professionals” (read — militants) going rogue to “continue our fight until the very end’. Interestingly, these heroic figures are completely uninterested in the fate of the women, children, and elderly around them, and make no mention of attempts to facilitate their safe removal from the areas where they plan to take their last stand. It can be surmised that the death of civilians might be one of the unspoken goals of this bunch, for with their corpses conveniently at hand the “heroes” would finally be able to spell the term “genocide” which they are misusing inappropriately and inaccurately.
