NEW " KASHATAGH " WEBSITE INCLUDES ON-LINE PETITION TO PRESIDENTS OF ARMENIA AND KARABAKH

Entering Berdzor-Lachin Corridor (Onnik Krikorian)

We all have read the stories that have recently appeared in various Armenian news outlets regarding the exodus of Armenians from the strategically vital region of KASHATAGH (Lachin).

This region, that lies between the Republic of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh proper, has witnessed this human outflow due to worsening socio-economic conditions and unkept promises of aid and assistance by the very officials who called on Armenians to settle these border areas after their liberation in the Karabakh war.

We urge all concerned with the plight of Kashatagh and it people to visit the new website and sign the petition addressed to the Presidents of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh which calls for immediate measures designed to ameliorate conditions in Kashatagh and thus hopefully halt the exodus.
