Statement issued by the NGOs of Azerbaijan regarding the act of vandalism committed by armenian communities against Azerbaijani embassies in foreign countries

As NGOs from Azerbaijan, we vehemently condemn the attacks and acts of vandalism committed against the premises of Azerbaijan's diplomatic missions abroad by the radicals of the Armenian diaspora in the countries such as France, Lebanon. These attacks, containing the elements of terrorism, are aimed at causing harm to diplomats and their property, and are considered crimes that give rise to international criminal responsibility. We would like to draw attention to the fact that the "1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations,” an international agreement outlining the status and functions of diplomatic missions, "The receiving State is under a special duty to take all appropriate steps to protect the premises of the mission against any intrusion or damage and to prevent any disturbance of the peace of the mission or impairment of its dignity”. We regret to inform you that the response to the attacks against the Azerbaijani embassies is not satisfactory. Even though it has been a few days since the incidents, the institutions in charge of stopping provocations have not yet issued enough statements or dealt any punishment with the perpetrators.
