Press and Religious Freedom Entangled in Nagorno-Karabakh
12/19/2020 Nagorno-Karabakh (International Christian Concern) – Azerbaijani media outlets have published a number of articles reporting that over 12,000 Azerbaijanis will be resettled in Stepanakert. This city is located in Nagorno-Karabakh (
Armenian: Artsakh), a territory recently captured by Azerbaijan and Turkey as part of their attempt to accomplish pan-Islamic Turkism by eliminating the local Armenian Christian population. The Spokesperson for the President of Artsakh has claimed that these Azerbaijani media reports are false and part of a disinformation campaign intended to disorient and divide the Armenian community.
These types of tactics are documented by ICC’s joint report
