The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) adopted a final Cairo Communiqué on February 6-7, 2013, in the summit held in Egypt’s capital, naming the Khojaly tragedy as genocide against humanity. The Communiqué also calls on the international community to recognize the genocide. A resolution adopted by foreign minister of OIC member countries in capital of Guinea, Conakry on December 9-11, includes a special paragraph regarding the “Justice to Khojali” campaign. According to this paragraph, the OIC Foreign Ministers Council “welcomes the activities of the campaign and urges member states to take an active part in the campaign at the national and international levels in order to recognize the Khojaly genocide as an act of crime against humanity”.
