Azerbaijan's Blockade: Starvation and Genocide in Karabakh

A report claims that a genocide is taking place against 120,000 Armenians living in Nagorno-Karabakh, as Azerbaijan has blockaded the Lachin Corridor, cutting off access to food, medicine, and other essential goods. The report argues that the deliberate deprivation of these necessities constitutes a genocide under Article II (c) of the Genocide Convention. The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ordered Azerbaijan to ensure unimpeded movement along the corridor, but Azerbaijan has failed to comply. The duty to prevent genocide requires immediate action to lift the blockade, and the United States, Russia, and other world powers are urged to intervene.
