5. SOUNDBITE (English) Ararat Mirzoyan, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Armenia:
“The chronology of truly devastating developments in our region come to prove that the issues cannot be addressed merely with statements and generic calls. Armenia has repeatedly warned the international community about the need for concrete and practical action, including the dispatching of a UN inter-agency needs assessment and fact-finding mission to Nagorno-Karabakh. But the international community, the United Nations failed to come to the rescue of people for the last 9 months, 285 days.”

“The claims that the United Nations is not present on the ground, so has no capacity to verify the situation cannot be an excuse for inaction.

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Ararat Mirzoyan, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Armenia:
“We are hopeful that the international community, namely the UN will demonstrate a strong political will to condemn the resumption of hostilities and targeting of civilian settlements and infrastructure and demand full compliance with obligations under the international humanitarian law, including those related to the protection of civilians, in particular women and children, and critical civilian infrastructure.”

The unimpeded access of the UN agencies and other international organizations to Nagorno-Karabakh in line with the humanitarian principles are an imperative.”
12. Wide shot, General Assembly
13.SOUNDBITE (English) Ararat Mirzoyan, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Armenia:
“We also believe that the international community must demand the exit of any Azerbaijani military and law-enforcement bodies from all civilian settlements in NK to exclude panic, provocations and escalation, endangering civilian population and create a possibility for a United Nations mandated Peacekeeping Force to keep stability and security in Nagorno Karabakh.”
