#Azerbaijan ambassador to @UN @VaqifS misleading Intl. society deliberately spreading false claims. Besides aggressive epithets and misrepresentation of recent clashes, ambassador uses uncovered lies, probably hoping no one's gonna fact check it. See the thread below.

On 7/14 @razminfo agency revealed #Azerbaijan using local villages as human shields, violating Geneva conventions 3&4, Additional Protocol I & @ICRC Rule 97

In 1990 such conduct of Iraq brought to civilians deaths. #Saddam was accused in war crime for this

Ambassador distorts #Armenia Minister letter to @OSCE informing #Armenia army remains restrained, but "in case of provocations … ready to react… up to the capture of new advantageous positions". There was no intention to advance, as claimed by Ambassador facebook.com/shushanstepany…

Biggest lie of these days. NOT A SINGLE official figure in #Armenia has threatened to his Mingechaur dam. #Azerbaijan ambassador to UN lies to whiten #AzMod speaker - a high rank official threatening to hit Armenia nuclear plant, i.e. commit crime against humanity.

1 - #Artsakh surface is 11,458 km2, #Azerbaijan - 86,600km2. Only 13.2% of Soviet Azerbaijan territory forms #Karabakh Republic today.
2 - Based on mainly #Azerbaijan|i sources, w/ maximum number in each case considered, there are 625K Azeri refugees (see infographic w/ sources)

Hrant Mikaelyan @hrant_m made a much deeper analysis, bringing out number 575K refugees from #Armenia+#NKAO+7 regions kavkaz-uzel.eu/blogs/83781/po…
1 MLN originally referred to total refugees number, incl. #Armenia|ns, that now Ambassador represents as total Azerbaijani nationals.

Concluding - Vaqif Sadıqov - #Azerbaijan Ambassador to @UN manipulated facts, misrepresented data & made an effort to mislead UN officials and intl. community about recent events in Tavush.
