A German journalist who reported from Stepanakert during the war asks a common question on our minds. NATO, the UN, EU, OSCE all turned a blind eye as Artsakh suffered unspeakable war crimes at the hands of Azerbaijan. Why?

Heartbreaking images from the frontlines. The people of Artsakh are living through horror, suffering grievous injuries, and sheltering in cramped basements despite covid. We appreciate the brave journalists who are covering the realities of war. #RecognizeArtsakh #PeaceforArtsakh

Araksya Karapetyan had an inspiring interview with Artak Beglaryan, the Human Rights Ombudsman of Artsakh about his past, the current situation in Artsakh, and life philosophy. He has continued to push for the safe return of Armenian POWs. Full Video:

Earlier this month, students from the Tchaikovsky Music School in Yerevan, traveling to France for a show, performed on an Air France flight. The students brought out their instruments during the trip and played classical Mozart tunes for the passengers. 🎥: @ZartonkMedia

The loss of the war was a loss for the collective democratic world. However, Armenia and Artsakh’s existence among authoritarian regimes presents valuable opportunities for Western institutions to re-engage and work toward a lasting and meaningful peace.

The territorial integrity of the Rep of Azerbaijan has nothing in common with the Rep of Artsakh, as Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), was never been part of independent Azerbaijan, neither in 1918-1920 nor after 1991. #RecognizeArtsakh via @greekcitytimes

With news breaking at an alarming rate all over the world, sometimes it's helpful to share recent events in new ways - and that’s just what foreign policy expert and senior fellow at Atlantic Council, Hagar Hajjar Chemali did in this new video.

100 Parisians stood in silence each holding a sign with the name of a fallen Armenian soldier. They not only stood in solidarity with Artsakh but denounced the inaction of the French government. Credit: « Vrej » #RecognizeArtsakh #PeaceforArtsakh #imagesofsolidarity

We are disappointed, on this #HumanRightsDay that @Amnesty has chosen to release such an unbalanced report stating “Eleven other videos show violations by Armenian forces, and seven by Azerbaijani forces.” (1/2)

The current Azeri regime is unjust. Ignoring the UN’s global ceasefire, breaking an agreement with the US to resolve conflicts diplomatically for aid, countless human rights violations, war crimes, and several ceasefires broken during the war. Where are the consequences?

The recent war was basically a direct attack from Turkey on Armenia. Ankara encouraged Baku into action furthering their vision of a destroyed Armenia. In many ways, “One Nation Two States” is simply a cover for Turkey to execute its will via proxy while averting the global gaze.

In cases of Armenian history, the Azeri gov can not be trusted. The Armenian cemetery of Julfa, and its destruction, were both well documented. Yet Azerbaijan has denied both. If allowed, they will continue to revise history until Armenians are absent.

An accident? Twice? The Azeri government continues to be perfidious in their claims that Shushi was struck twice by accident. The strikes, which took place in the same part of the church, would attest to them being both deliberate and antagonistic. @hrw
