STATEMENT

OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT

OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN

  

As a result of a mine explosion on June 4, on the road of Susuzlug village of Kalbajar region of Azerbaijan, two professional journalists - employees of the Azerbaijan Television and the Azerbaijan State News Agency, as well as one public employee were killed and four persons were injured.

Since the end of military operations, more than 140 people have fallen victim to landmines planted by Armenian occupiers in liberated areas. 27 of them died.

Responsibility for the death of innocent people lies fully on the military and political leadership of Armenia.

Despite numerous appeals of the Azerbaijani side as to provision of landmine maps, the Armenian governance refuses to submit them and thus, continues to grossly violate the international norms and international obligations, such as the right to life, the right to free movement, the right to live in safety, and other fundamental rights enshrined in international legal instruments.

In this connection, the international community should take appropriate measures and force the military and political leadership of Armenia to provide the maps of landmines.

The principle of justice, which is one of the most important foundations of international law, must be ensured by the entire international community in order to protect the human rights and freedoms.
