Lemkin Institute concerned by threats to integrity of Cows' Garden
The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention is deeply concerned by threats to the integrity of the Armenian Quarter (Cows' Garden) in East Jerusalem.
"We call on the United States and other close allies of Israel to take it upon themselves to guarantee the Armenian community due process in this land dispute," it said in a statement on Tuesday.
"The global Armenian community has already lost one important historical land this fall — Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), which was forcibly depopulated when Azerbaijan invaded, massacred Armenians, and terrorized almost the entire Armenian population into fleeing. The Armenian people cannot lose another," the Lemkin Institute added.
