YEREVAN. – Azerbaijan does not have even five percent of our opportunities in the platform for international justice.
Armenia’s Prosecutor General Aghvan Hovsepyan noted the aforesaid during the Pan-Armenian Conference of Lawyers, which is held Friday in capital city Yerevan.
He added that Armenia needs to pass from emotions to cold calculations, in the fight for the international recognition of the Armenian Genocide, and to speak not solely about the crime that was committed against humanity, but about compensation to the next generations of the genocide victims.
“The matter of reparations should be brought back on the agenda,” Hovsepyan stated.
“What I say goes for Azerbaijan, too. If it had at least five percent of Armenia’s opportunities in the domain of international justice, it would have used them a long time ago. But this country realizes very well that it does not have a corresponding base of evidence and in no way can it deny the modern-day crimes. [And] the unconscientious and unruly slander [by Azerbaijan] is derived from this,” the prosecutor general maintained.
