Head of the Armenian National Assembly of Australia Vache Kahramanian held briefings with the United States and French embassies in Canberra to discuss the ongoing aggression by Azerbaijan directed towards Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh.

The message is loud and clear - the international community must end the false parity and call out Azerbaijan's aggression by condemning recent events including the shooting down of an unarmed helicopter over the sovereign borders of Nagorno-Karabakh.

The Azerbaijani armed forces violated the ceasefire and shot down an NKR Air Force helicopter on November 12. After the helicopter fell in neutral territory, Azerbaijani side continued shelling not permitting access to the representatives of Armenia and NKR, as well as international organizations on behalf of OSCE and ICRC.

Taking into account, Azerbaijani authorities' refusal to let anyone close to the helicopter, of the NKR Defense Army command decided to conduct a special operation. The body of one pilot and remains of two others, as well as pieces of fuselage have been removed.
