Armenia’s Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan held a meeting with United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Political and Peacebuilding Affairs Rosemary DiCarlo in New York on Friday.

Ararat Mirzoyan presented the situation following Azerbaijan’s large-scale aggression against the sovereign territory of Armenia last week, the Foreign Ministry reported.

Mirzoyan deemed the numerous violations of international humanitarian law and war crimes committed by the Azerbaijani armed forces to be unacceptable, stressing that they should receive adequate assessments.

“The minister highlighted the need for targeted and clear condemnation of the aggressor by the international community, noting that non-targeted responses provide fertile ground for new Azerbaijani aggressions. In this context, the Armenian side emphasized the targeted assessments delivered during the urgent session of the UN Security Council,” the ministry said.

They exchanged views on possible mechanisms for increasing the involvement of the United Nations for establishing stability in the South Caucasus.

Ararat Mirzoyan and Rosemary DiCarlo also discussed issues related to the agenda of Armenia-UN cooperation and democratic reforms in Armenia.
