Patriarch Nourhan Manougian Writes to the President of Israel on the Azerbaijani Aggression in Nagorno-Karabakh

The Armenian Apostolic Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem – 2/10/2020

His Beatitude Archbishop Nourhan Manougian, the Armenian Patriarch of Jerusalem sent the following letter to His Excellency Mr Reuven Rivlin, the President of the State of Israel:

His Excellency Mr Reuven Rivlin
President of State of Israel
Jerusalem

Your Excellency,

Since September 27, 2020, the Azerbaijani army has been attacking the peaceful population of Nagorno-Karabakh, an Armenian enclave in the Caucuses region. A heavy and destructive war is being waged along the entire borderline between Azerbaijani and Armenian forces. Due to Azerbaijani aggressive activities, there have been reported hundreds of deaths and wounded civilians and soldiers.

Mr President, it is sad and painful to be informed by the Israeli news media that the warplanes being used by Azerbaijan are being supplied by Israel. The weapons, drones and artilleries sent from Israel are being used against the peaceful population of Nagorno-Karabakh causing deaths and injuries. Such an effort implies that Israel, who needs more peace, is siding with Azerbaijan to revive its war and animosity against Armenians, instead of playing a peace-seeking role.

By this letter we appeal to Your Excellency, to interfere with your government to stop supplying weapons to Azerbaijan. You are a person with a peace-loving character, and someone who knows well the sufferings of your people through Holocaust and pogroms, therefore, we rely on your conscience and judgment to do your best to stop Israel supporting an aggressor enemy, Azerbaijan, to harm the peaceful population of Nagorno-Karabakh and Armenia.

We always pray for your health, wishing a prosperous career, and we are hopeful that with your mediation our request will have a positive result.
