TOURINFO-September 27, 2020- TV personality and entrepreneur Kim Kardashian urged millions of her social media followers to call for the U.S. Congress and the White House to condemn Azerbaijan’s attack on Nagorno Karabakh (Artsakh) and cut off all U.S. military aid to Baku.
She made the comments in a Twitter thread on Sunday, September 27, after Azerbaijan launched a large-scale assault along the Karabakh contact line, and has been shelling civilian settlements since early morning.
Both Armenia and Artsakh have introduced martial law and total mobilization of their male population. The Armenian side has reported deaths and injuries both among the civilian population and the military.
“Armenians in Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) have been attacked. We are praying for the brave men and women risking their lives to protect Artsakh and Armenia,” Kim Kardashian West said.
“The news is misleading and these are not “clashes.” Armenia has been the victim of unprovoked attacks by Azerbaijan and the predictable disinformation campaign that accompanies them. Azerbaijan is blocking social media except for war propaganda.”
“We need international observers to investigate and call for international political and diplomatic measures to prevent unnecessary escalation and tragedy.”
She also urged her followers to use the Artsakh Alert by the Armenian National Committee of America to call on the White House and Congress to condemn Azerbaijan’s attack on Karabakh, call upon Baku to cease all offensive uses of force, cut off all U.S. military aid to Azerbaijan being used against Armenians, as well as warn Turkey to stop sending arms and fighters to Baku.
