This is an obvious criminal threat against the entire population of Armenia. About this on their page Facebook wrote the Ombudsman of Armenia Arman Tatoyan, commenting on the statement of Azerbaijani defense Ministry’s readiness to strike at the Metsamor nuclear power plant.
“Such a statement is a clear intention to commit a war crime. This could lead to a humanitarian catastrophe not only in Armenia but throughout the region. This threat is a terror on the civilian population. It violates the basic principles of international humanitarian law. Such intentions are harmful to the international system of human rights and humanitarian protection.
Defender of human rights in Armenia calls upon international institutions to pay attention to this statement, focusing on the terror of the civilian population and undermining the international system of human rights and humanitarian protection.
