Azerbaijan severs ties with EU Parliament over Nagorno-Karabakh resolution
The resolution called for the right of return for Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians and the release of Armenian prisoners held by Azerbaijan.

The resolution called for the right of return for Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians and the release of Armenian prisoners held by Azerbaijan.

Earlier in March, Pashinyan called Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians ‘runaways’.

Following backlash online, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan apologised for his remarks.

Assistance will rise from ֏3 million ($8,000) to ֏4 million ($11,000) per person in each family for communities adjacent to Yerevan.

The aid was set to be delivered by an organisation previously linked to interference in Moldova’s 2024 EU referendum.

Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev also compared the trials of Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians to the Nuremberg Trials.
In 2024, roughly one in five Armenians could not afford minimum food and basic non-food items.
