The Conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh: How the EU and Armenian Diaspora Can Make a Difference

2023-09-21 03:45:23

The military conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh region that broke out on Tuesday ended with a ceasefire on Wednesday. The Armenian minority there fears for its future. Ralph Janik, an expert in international law, explains why the conflict also has to do with the EU.

In addition to being one of the richest women in the world, she is also one of the most famous public advocates for the Armenian diaspora: Kim Kardashian. In a tweet and an accompanying essay in Rolling Stone, she refers to the conflict that has recently broken out again in the Nagorno-Karabakh region: “This is my request to President Joe Biden to prevent another genocide against the Armenians. It is time for America to intervene in the world and protect Armenians from Azerbaijan.”

On Tuesday, Azerbaijan launched a military operation there, and the Armenian minority living there fears for their territory and their future. In this episode, international law expert Ralph Janik explains what prominent representatives of the Armenian diaspora could do for the minority in Nagorno-Karabakh and why the conflict also has to do with the EU.
