YEREVAN. – I am constantly raising a question: Why has no human rights organization visited and does not visit Karabakh? The Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) of Armenia, Arman Tatoyan, said this at Thursday sitting of the National Assembly, during the latter’s discussion of the report on the work done by the ombudsman's office in 2020.

According to him, international human rights organizations, with such demeanor of theirs, in fact, caused serious damage to the system of ensuring human rights protection. "You [international human rights organizations] are obligated to fully assist in the protection of the rights of our citizens, so that human rights and democracy in the country do not contradict security issues," Tatoyan said.
