"We want peace between Armenia and Azerbaijan. We want peace in the Caucasus region. We want peace in Southern Caucasus. And, therefore, we are putting up with this difficult situation. But patience has its limits. You should know, the entire OSCE should know, the Minsk Group should know and the United Nations should know that an end must be put to this injustice against Azerbaijan."

"As a matter of law, Armenian army troop involvement in Azerbaijan makes
Armenia a party to the conflict and makes the war an international armed
conflict, as between the government of Armenia and Azerbaijan.
"The Republic of Armenia has become a party to the conflict by virtue of its
committment of troops to fight in Azerbaijan against the Azerbaijani armed
forces. Armenia also gives substantial support to the rebels [of Nagorno
Karabakh region]...
"Armenia has used its armed forces to conduct hostilities on Azerbaijani
territory against members of the Azerbaijani armed forces...
"The Republic of Armenia has claimed that all Armenian citizens
participating in hostilities in Nagorno Karabakh [region] or [remainder of]
Azerbaijan are merely 'volunteers.' Human Rights Watch / Helsinki found that
this claim is not true...
"In addition to committing troops to the conflict against Azerbaijan and in
support of the Nagorno Karabakh rebels, the Republic of Armenia also has
provided material aid to the rebels...

SEVEN YEARS OF
CONFLICT IN NAGORNO-KARABAKH
Now the longest-running conflict in the former Soviet Union, the battle for
Nagorno-Karabakh has rapidly expanded and intensified since it began in
1988, resulting in the deaths of an estimated 25,000 soldiers and civilians
and the displacement of one million others. What began with demonstrations
calling for the unification of the Republic of Armenia with
Nagorno-Karabakh, a largely Armenian [populated] region of Azerbaijan,
became a
full-scale war in 1992. In 1993, the war spilled into other parts of
Azerbaijan as Karabakh Armenian forces, often with the support of the
Republic of Armenia, conducted massive offensive military operations
into the Azeri-populated provinces surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh. A frail
cease-fire was achieved in May 1994, but large, well-equipped armies still
face each other over a deserted, ruined landscape in the Azeri lowlands
around Karabakh. In December 1994, the Conference on Security and
Cooperation in Europe decided to dispatch a multinational peacekeeping
force, the specifics of which have yet to be arranged.
During the conflict, the armies of the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of
Azerbaijan, and the self-proclaimed Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, have all
committed egregious violations of the rules of war. Such offenses include
forced displacement, looting and burning of homes, hostage taking and
holding, mistreatment and summary executions of prisoners of war, and
indiscriminate use of air power against civilian targets. Focusing on
1993-1994, the report concludes that Karabakh Armenian forces with the
support of the Republic of Armenia were responsible for the majority of
abuses during that period.
