Lemkin Institute issues alert for Azerbaijan’s potential invasion of Armenia

The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention issued a Red Flag Alert due to the alarming potential for an invasion of Armenia by Azerbaijan in the coming days and weeks.

“Considering recent political developments in the region—including the Azerbaijani invasion of Artsakh on September 19, 2023 and the ensuing seizure of the territory—and well-established genocidal Armenophobia endemic in Türkiye and Azerbaijan, an Azerbaijani invasion runs a dangerously high risk of devolving into genocide,” the official statement of the Lemkin Institute reads.
