Turkish defenders condemn Azerbaijan's bellicose statements
“We condemn all the ways and expressions of enmity raised by bellicose claims of some structures of the region’s states,” the resolution of the Armenian and Turkish Leagues adopted at the International Federation of Human Rights 37th Congress reads.
At a press conference following the end of the Congress today, while reporters were trying to make it clear whether it goes about Azerbaijan as well since the country regularly makes bellicose statements, the President of Turkey’s Human Rights Foundation (TIHV) Yavuz Onen said they condemn any bellicose ones generally. “If Azerbaijan is bellicose and makes bellicose statements, of course, we condemn Azerbaijan as well,” he said.
According to him, all border disputes lead to the violation of human rights. Yavuz Onen said they also condemn the discussions over the current borders of Armenia, those bringing about wars.
“We also denounce Turkey’s policy to spend huge sums on arms while the same amounts could be spent for the welfare of people,” TIHV President said.
