Drawing comparisons between the Armenian Genocide and the ethnic cleansing carried out by Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh in 2023, he noted: “ With last year's ethnic cleansing of Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)], the world was reminded of how destructive pan-Turkic ideology can be.” “Therefore, this is my promise to you. I will continue to use the platform I have been given to shine light on what has happened and what continues to happen in the region and to continue to build ties and closer relations between the peoples of Europe and the people of Armenia for a brighter future,” added Swedish MP Erik Hellsborn.
