News - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wants to help restore Armenia, Karabakh sovereignty and territories

To help avert yet another war and uphold the principles of freedom and democracy, the US government needs to mobilize regional support for Armenians’ right to self-defense and self-determination and advocate for the safe return of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) Armenians to their historic homeland. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has announced his candidacy for the US president, stated this in his video message which he posted on X, former Twitter. He stated that starting from 2020, Azerbaijan is carrying out merciless ethnic cleansing against the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh. And in September of this year, Azerbaijan attacked and displaced the entire 120,000 Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh, added the US politician. While the world's attention is focused on Gaza and Israel, no one hears anything about the mass displacement of the entire population of one of the ancient Armenian territories. Empty condemnation of ethnic cleansing is not enough. Unlike the 1915 genocide, this one is reversible. This is a situation where peaceful sanctions can work. The United States still has leverage in that region, and it can use this power to mobilize all the peoples of the region to reverse this humanitarian tragedy. Also, there is a need to look for ways to lift Armenia’s blockade by Turkey and Azerbaijan. Armenia is a landlocked country and should have access to the ports of neighboring countries, the American politician said. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. assured that if elected US president, he will contribute to the restoration of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh. He said that as President of the United States, he will use diplomacy, as well as the US moral authority, economic leverage, and sanctions to restore Armenia. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. noted that he wants to help restore the sovereignty of Armenia and Artsakh, and restore their territories. The nephew of former US President John F. Kennedy added that he wants to do this peacefully; instead of starting a new war somewhere, he would like to stop one of them.
