Baku initially plans to settle 300 thousand Azerbaijanis in Armenia. Arman Tatoyan

In the first stage, according to official Baku statements, Azerbaijan plans to settle about 300 thousand Azerbaijanis in Armenia under the auspices of an international mission in the event of a security system that the so-called "Western Azerbaijan" community will trust. Former RA Ombudsman Arman Tatoyan said this during the discussion on April 29, News.am reports.

According to him, it is obvious that we are talking about Turkey. Tatoyan noted that Azerbaijan's policy is aimed at destroying Armenia's security system. According to the human rights defender, the current situation implies the need for an urgent adoption of a new security strategy, which should be based on several principles, which is impossible under the current policy of the RA authorities. "The first principle is the stable system of ensuring the security of the state and the person with the preservation of the Armenian identity. In addition, the strategy should be based on guarantees, including the rule of law, real democratic values, effective state system, combat capability of the army and other principles," he noted.

According to his assessment, gross mistakes are being made today, which can lead to irreversible consequences. Tatoyan is sure that what is happening today has nothing in common with demarcation, because that process implies the availability of maps, a detailed cadastral survey, assessment of requirements, study of road maps, mandatory accounting of the population's rights.

The former ombudsman reminded about gross violations of the rights of residents of Syunik, Gegharkunik and Vayots Dzor regions. He added that the demarcation commission has no right to make statements that may have consequences for the entire country. "That commission was created on the basis of the personal legal act of the head of the government, referring to the law that allows forming only a consultative body. The activity of the committee should concern only the interests of the members of that committee. What does the whole country have to do with this? If the regulations have not been decided, if the issues surrounding the project have not been agreed upon, how can one make statements on behalf of that commission that will lead to consequences regarding the violation of the safety of the population," said Arman Tatoyan.
