CAROLINE COCKS SAYS AZERBAIJANI PEOPLE USED AS LIVING SHIELDS IN KHOJALU
The Deputy Speaker of the British House of Lords Baroness Caroline Cocks gave interview to Aysor.am web site answering to the questions addressed to her.
To the reporter’s question whether the international community is so well informed about the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to resist the disinformation spread by Azerbaijan’s campaign, Ms Cocks answered:
“I think currently Azerbaijan wastes much to circulate “Khojalu events” phrase. But, I know, that Armenian side has informed Azerbaijani side about the assault, hence giving Azerbaijani people opportunity to leave the territory. The Azerbaijani themselves say they have been informed about the assault. I can state, that Armenians have done everything to escape innocent victims. As the fact that innocent victims are always tragedy is indisputable. But Azerbaijan gave preference to use its own people as a living shield, and then the Azerbaijani campaign used its dead people to resume a show. Khojalu is not the same as presented by Azerbaijan; they were given a chance to escape what had happened. Armenians don’t need any campaign, as the truth is theirs. Armenian Embassies and representation house in different countries need to make the truth audible. I guess, Azerbaijan can not win this informative war. The international community should acknowledge that Armenians are not aggressors, they are victims.”
