Swiss journalist writes realities on Nagorno Karabakh in German magazine
Baku, August 4 (AZERTAC). An article by Swiss journalist Andre Vidmerin on realities of Nagorno Karabakh was published in German “Die Welt” and “Frankfurter Rundschau” magazines.
“The Nagorno Karabakh as an integral part of Azerbaijan was occupied by Armenian armed forces in 1991. Over one million Azerbaijanis were expatriated from their lands. The historical, religious monuments and cultural objects were destroyed in the occupied territories. Thousands of Azerbaijanis were taken hostage. Currently, the military regime, which rules in the occupied territories, is famous for its murderments and ethnic cleansing. The government of Armenia does not recognize this regime as an independent state”, the journalist writes.
“The UN and other international organizations recognize Nagorno Karabakh as a territory of Azerbaijan. The independent states, including the countries of Europe also support territorial integrity of Azerbaijan”, he underlines.
Mr. Vidmer also writes that Armenians started putting pressure on him as well.
