I and my family members were forced to leave our home in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan and move to another region in the face of aggression from the neighboring country. As a result of this ethnic cleansing and... 27/09/2021 | 18:02:10 Yes, Madam President, We propose to add the words "particularly in places not located in the conflict zone" to paragraph 8.4 after the word "civilians" because you know that during the 44 days of war last year, while Azerbaijan was strictly following humanitarian international law and also the requirements of the law of armed conflict, unfortunately, Armenia did vice versa.
