This was stated in an announcement released by the community.
According to the statement, the WAC sent a letter to Guterres regarding a speech made by Levon Ter-Petrosyan during his tenure as President of Armenia in 1993.
“In that speech, Levon Ter-Petrosyan confirmed that ethnic cleansing and the occupation of Azerbaijani territories were state policies of Armenia and referred to the expulsion of Azerbaijanis from Armenia as a historical achievement. Our letter to the UN Secretary-General regarding this exceptional evidence, which confirms that Armenia’s state policy is racist and a crime against humanity and peace, has been disseminated as an official document of the UN General Assembly and Security Council. This holds great significance in terms of the international legal recognition of Armenia’s responsibility for these crimes,” the statement reads.
The Western Azerbaijan Community continues its efforts to bring this issue not only to the attention of the UN but also to regional organizations and international non-governmental organizations that claim to defend human rights.
