German media “blogs.taz.de” has published Azerbaijani scientist Asif Masimov’s article, titled ‘The Nagorno Karabakh conflict: It is about human rights’.
The article gives information about the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the occupation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan, and seven adjacent districts by Armenia. The author also gives clarification to German politicians’ positions on the recent clashes between Armenia and Azerbaijan. While German politicians Barbara Hendirks (SDP), Sergey Lagodinski (Union 90/Greens), and Helin Evrim Sommer (Left Party) called for the resolution of the conflict within the framework of international law and supported the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, another group of German MPs lobbied for the interests of Armenia. Asif Masimov criticized the subjective positions of Cem Ozdemir (Ittifaq 90/Greens), Sevim Dagdelen (Left Party), Hayke Henzel (Left Party), and Albert Weiler (XDI), who did not refer to international law in their statements and unjustly accused Azerbaijan and Turkey of "aggressive policy".
The author of the article also states that politicians making biased statements do not pay enough attention to the issue of human rights violations in Armenia, which carries out ethnic cleansing and expels Azerbaijanis from their lands.
