    A. OVERVIEW

    In blatant violation of international law, including international humanitarian law Armenia

    has been occupying for almost 30 years now one fifth of internationally recognized

    territories of Azerbaijan. As a result of military aggression by Armenia hundreds of

    thousands of Azerbaijanis were forcefully expelled from their homes and became internally

    displaced persons.

    Over the years Armenia systematically and deliberately pursued the goal of securing the

    annexation of the occupied territories. Being against the political settlement which rejects

    the status-quo based on illegal use of force, Armenia has undertaken a chain of

    provocative statements and actions undermining this process. This included, among others

    the movement of foreign terrorist fighters (FTFs) and their recruiters from Syria, Iraq and

    Lebanon through specific geographic routes into the occupied Azerbaijani territories. Some

    of them, according to the intelligence information, have been moved together with women

    and children illegally settled by Armenia in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan following

    the crises broke out in Syria and Lebanon.

    Throughout the years the Government of Armenia organized accommodation, training and

    logistical maintenance of FTFs in the occupied territories for preparing them to carry out

    terrorist activities against Azerbaijan. They have undertaken extensive trainings in the

    training camps established by Armenia under the instruction of skilled terrorists of PKK and

    ASALA terrorist organizations. The movement of FTFs has been intensified immediately

    after the recent aggression by Armenia starting from 27 September 2020.

    Azerbaijan has repeatedly brought this growing threat to the attention of world community.

    In its communications Azerbaijan called all states to condemn Armenia of its illegal

    settlement policy in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan, to strengthen border control

    measures for preventing the movement of foreign terrorist fighters into the territories of

    Azerbaijan, to suppress the financing of terrorism undertaken under the cover of charity

    activities by Armenian organizations, as well as to prevent the abuse of civilian aviation for

    the purpose of transportation of FTFs and armament into the occupied territories of

    Azerbaijan.

    Armenia in an open attempt to cover-up its above-mentioned wrongdoings, brazenly

    accuses Azerbaijan of the same with a view to diverting the attention of the international

    community, and to that end carries out a massive campaign of fake news. Professional

    analysis of video and photo materials presented by Armenia to substantiate its claims

    proves that all these are nothing more than pre-fabricated falsifications.

    B. Recruitment of foreign terrorist fighters (FTFs) by Armenia – data from open

    media sources

    In the course of its recent military aggression against Azerbaijan Armenia recruited foreign

    nationals, including Armenians from different countries into its armed units illegally

    deployed in the temporarily occupied territories of Azerbaijan.

    Immediately after the outbreak of recent hostilities on 27 September 2020 Prime Minister of

    Armenia – Nikol Pashinyan called all Armenians

    (including foreign nationals of Armenian origin) to

    stand united in defence of “homeland”.

    The leadership of Armenia, in order to boost its

    ideological campaign of terrorist nature, refers to

    the term “homeland” while calling all Armenians to

    unite for. It must be particularly noted that

    Azerbaijan carried out its counter-offensive

    operation in its sovereign territories. Therefore, by

    calling all Armenians to be united in defence of the

    “homeland” that does not belong to them, the

    leadership of Armenia brings the elements of

    nationalism, chauvinism and ethnic hatred to the

    conflict.

    On his interview to Ria Novosti on 15 October 2020, Prime Minister Pashinyan confirmed

    the participation of foreign nationals, including those of Armenian origin in the recent

    hostilities against Azerbaijan1.

    The evidences and facts gleaned before and throughout the aggression clearly indicated

    that Armenia had been recruiting foreign mercenaries and terrorist fighters (hereinafter

    “foreign terrorist fighters”).

    Armenia has a long history of using foreign fighters, including terrorist groups of Armenian

    origin to advance its malign foreign and security policy goals. Terrorist organizations such

    as ASALA and Justice Commandos of the Armenian Genocide (JCAG) have been actively

    involved in aggression against Azerbaijan in early 1990s. Monte Melkonyan, a notorious

    ASALA terrorist who participated in these operations with his armed unit was posthumously

    named a national hero by Armenia2.

    I. PKK (Kurdistan Workers’ Party)

    PKK is one of the internationally recognized terrorist organizations in close collaboration

    with Armenia. Armenia has always supported the PKK due to animosity with Turkey and

    used its ties with the PKK and its affiliates as a leverage vis-à-vis Turkey3.

    Before the latest aggression, there have been numerous reports on “300 militants

    belonging to the PKK transferred by Armenia from various countries in the Middle East and

    placed in the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan, where they have

    subsequently begun training with Armenian military”4.

    Armenian government reportedly set up shelters and camps for the PKK in Nagorno-

    Karabakh region of Azerbaijan and even has a PKK office in one of Yerevan's central

    streets. In addition to the current deployment of PKK terrorists from Iraq and Syria in the

    occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region5, in the past, there were even reports of Kurdish

    civilians from those countries relocated to occupied Azerbaijani territories and provided

    with one-time cash benefits or 20-year low-interest loans.

    Armenia is reportedly supplying missile systems to the PKK that would be used to combat

    drones in exchange for the use of PKK militants in operations against Azerbaijan. The

    delivery of these missile systems is said to be coordinated by the PKK commander, one of

    the organization's five founders, Jamil Bayik, and the missiles are expected to be delivered

    to PKK strongholds in Qandil shortly.

    Some sources6 suggest that the members of Nubar Ozanyan

    Brigade, an Armenian-run terrorist group based in Qamishli city of

    Syria with strong ties to Yerevan, have left for joining armed forces

    of Armenia illegally deployed in the occupied territories of

    Azerbaijan.

    The Brigade was formed under the leadership of the YPG, the

    Syrian wing of PKK.

    Armenia transferred hundreds of armed terrorists from

    Suleymaniyah, which is considered to be a stronghold of the

    PKK in Iraq, to the Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan7.

    Flight data acquired from open internet resources suggests

    that there have been growing number of flights from

    Suleymaniyah to Yerevan in the month of October 2020,

    while there had not been single flight before the start of

    military operations.

    The flights took place on 9 and 19 September, as well as on

    8 and 13 October 2020 (each time carrying at least 300

    terrorists on board) and conducted by the aircrafts of

    Olympus Airways of Greece.

    Some media sources report that the contact with the PKK terrorists in Syria and Iraq was

    established by Hrachya Poladian, Armenian Ambassador to Baghdad. Poladian convinced

    the groups in meetings and agreed with the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan for the transfer of

    terrorists from Syria and Iraq to Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan.

    According to some media sources8 Armenia had made YPG/PKK terrorists, it brought and

    reportedly deployed in Shusha city of Azerbaijan, to wear Azerbaijani soldiers’ uniforms.

    With this tactic Armenia aimed to confuse Azerbaijani forces and to create a condition

    when those terrorists are killed, to claim that they were mercenaries brought from Syria by

    Azerbaijan.

    Armenian soldier Albert Mikaelyan, who was taken as prisoner of war in the course of

    counter-offensive operations of Azerbaijan, also admitted that foreign terrorist fighters were

    fighting in the Armenian ranks in Nagorno-Karabakh with a monthly salary of $600.

    II. Syrian and Lebanese nationals

    Exploiting the consequences of the Syrian and Lebanese crisis and the grievances of the

    people from this region, Armenia had taken the advantage of those hopeless people and

    actively recruited them as foreign fighters9.

    Just in 2011-2017 Armenia has settled more than 20 000 Syrian nationals on its territory

    and the occupied territories of Azerbaijan10. In 2016, former residents of the Syrian village

    of Yacoubiyah were enticed to settle en masse to Nagorno-Karabakh region11.

    After liberation of Zangilan district of Azerbaijan from Armenian occupation in October

    2020, official documents have been revealed in one of the buildings belonging to Armenian

    intelligence services, where the list of names of 60 Syrian nationals (19 families) moved

    from Syria12 to the occupied territories had been reflected.

    Immediately after the Beirut Port explosion in Lebanon on 4 August 2020, Armenia

    misused the situation and purposefully organized the movement of the people suffered

    from the consequences of this tragic event to the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. Since

    August 2020, nine Lebanese families have been settled by Armenia in the occupied NK

    region13, while Armenian authorities expressed their readiness to settle 100-150 families14

    there.

    The video footage appeared on 29.10.2020 where Lebanese national acknowledged

    fighting in the ranks of Armenia’s Army against Azerbaijan15.

    According to Radio France International (RFI), fighters from Lebanon, Syria, Latin America

    arrived in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan to fight for Armenia. The report reveals that,

    around 30 fighters received “express training” before joining the attacks. The volunteers

    who spoke on the condition of anonymity described their experiences. “Since the start of

    the conflict, so many (volunteer fighters) have been registered that some are still waiting in

    Yerevan to be called in to support those who are fighting,” the RFI reports16.

    Associated Press (AP) reported that Lebanese Armenians joined the fight against

    Azerbaijan. Several residents of Beirut’s main Armenian district, Bourj Hammoud, told AP

    that they too are ready to abandon their lives in Lebanon to fight against Azerbaijan17. “We

    will fight until the last Armenian soldier,” one shop owner was quoted as saying. Opera

    singer Kevork Hadjian, who was known for his rousing renditions of nationalist Armenian

    songs, was killed in combat.

    Rafi Ghazaryan, 50 y/o Lebanese national of Armenian origin in his interview to

    Associated Press18 expressed his intention to leave for Armenia and join the ongoing

    military hostilities against Azerbaijan. He confirmed that many of his compatriots of

    Armenian origin have already left for that purpose.

    Vartkes, young Lebanese national of Armenian origin who had asked not to be identified

    by his last name told Reuters that he wanted to go to the occupied territories of Azerbaijan

    for joining battles. Karapet Aghajanyan, the combat instructor in Yerevan, who trained

    local and foreign volunteers, informed that around 10 Lebanese-Armenians had received

    training in his camp. He said they had arrived from Beirut after the fighting broke out in late

    September to go to the frontline19.

    III. Other nationals

    Besides PKK and Middle Eastern nationals Armenia deployed foreign terrorist fighters from

    other countries as well.

    Greek City Times revealed that the first batch of Greek fighters would consist of

    approximately 80 Greek citizens, around 50 of Armenian origin and around another 30

    ethnic Greeks20. According to the Greek media, Armenian recruitment involves around

    500-800 Greek nationals, some with combat experience in NATO missions in Afghanistan

    and Kosovo21.

    David Koroghlyan, a US national, was visiting family in Armenia when hostilities resumed

    in Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan on September 27. He did not leave for US and

    joined the ongoing battles.His relative, another US national, George Avakian also left

    Glendale, US for the occupied territories of Azerbaijan to take part in ongoing hostilities22.

    Arsen Harutyunyan23 was also among tens of US nationals who have reportedly joined

    the armed forces of Armenia as foreign terrorist fighter. He is a famous mountain skier

    coach in the US who has taken part in Winter Olympics as part of US national team.

    There are plenty of sources attesting the involvement of French nationals to the armed

    units of Armenia against Azerbaijan.

    Referring to French media, Daily Sabah reported that “scores of Armenians living in France

    have arrived in the illegally occupied Azerbaijani territory of Nagorno-Karabakh to fight

    alongside Yerevan forces”. "Armenians from France are starting to arrive in Armenia to

    fight the Azerbaijani army on the Nagorno-Karabakh front," Georges Malbrunot, a senior

    reporter of French newspaper Le Figaro said in a tweet. According to France 24 report,

    "Vardan, an Armenian builder living in western France, flew back to Armenia to fight in the

    conflict with Azerbaijan."

    Hrayr Keroglyan (photo on the right), 45 y/o French citizen, who

    was born in Aleppo, Syria to an Armenian family, came to

    Nagorno- Karabakh with his eldest son to participate in the

    operations immediately after the start of hostilities on September

    2724.

    Hamlet Hovsepian25, 31 y/o French national from Strasbourg and Arthur Ohanissian

    French national of Armenian origin are also among those French citizens taking part in

    ongoing hostilities.

    It is worth reading the following passage of Arthur Ohanissian’s interview26 to Russian

    Novaya Gazeta which draws the solid picture of disappointment of foreign terrorist fighters

    fighting in the ranks of Armenian army:

    - "They - the Armenian government deceives the people! They

    sent 18-year-old soldiers to the front only with machine guns.

    They say, "Sorry, no bullets, sorry, no tanks." Bulletproof jackets

    are completely useless. There is nothing there. The food truck

    unloads everything on the road, and if you want to eat, you have

    to walk 4 kilometers under the Grads. We, 8 friends, went for 4

    nights and carried food for all four lines on our shoulders”

    - How did you get to the front? - The journalist clarifies

    - “I just came, I don't even have any documents, I bought a machine gun and went ahead.

    I had two brothers there and I followed them and stayed. I am a French citizen. I came

    from there two weeks ago.Everything is very bad there. The authorities say the losses

    are about 200. But 200 people died in front of me, on our line! There are thousands of

    dead in total!”

    The leader of the extreme right-wing group Zouaves Paris (ZVP), Marc

    de Cacqueray-Valmenier, reported on Instagram that he had arrived

    in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan to fight alongside Armenians in

    Nagorno-Karabakh in conflict with Azerbaijan, Libération reported on

    Friday, October 30.To illustrate his commitment, Marc de Cacqueray

    broadcasted a picture of him in uniform with an assault rifle in his

    hands that could be a Kalashnikov. On his bust were two patches: an

    Armenian flag and a totenkopf, the skull used by some SS units. The

    picture was captioned “Direction: the front”. He also made known his will to create “a

    brigade of foreign volunteers” in collaboration with the local authorities.

    active military operations against the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan as foreign terrorist

    fighters.

    Major Ovannes Ayvazyan, senior lieutenant Migran Avdalyan, lieutenant colonel Arman

    Kostanyan and lieutenant colonel Arsen Khachatryan were awarded with “orders” by the

    so-called “defence army of Nagorno-Karabakh”27.

    The following Georgian nationals, who moved to Armenia for joining the ongoing fights,

    were killed in military clashes in Nagorno-Karabakh: Avagyan Simon, Agjoyan Mkhitar

    Khachikovich, Chobanyan Ashot Alikovich, Fidanyan Gnel Minasovich,

    decision of the Georgian Court was sentenced to 10

    years in prison, and several other Georgian nationals

    of Armenian origin from Javakheti region of Georgia

    travelled to Karabakh as part of a terrorist group to

    fight there. Vaagn Chakhalyan was posting pictures

    on his Facebook page showing him along with other terrorists in the occupied Azerbaijani

    territories29.

    There were also media reports about the arrival of a

    group of FTFs from Abkhazia, Georgia. Some of them

    were members of Armenian battalion called

    “Bagramyan” which is well-known for its cruelties

    against civilian population of Georgia30. The recruiter of

    the group is called Akhra Avidzba who is known with

    his nickname of “Abkhaz”. The group departed Sochi on

    6 November 2020 with “Ural Airlines” flight U6-8871.

    Another foreign terrorist fighter - Aghasi Asatryan31, German national of Armenian origin,

    who was an IT specialist in Germany before arriving in the occupied territories of

    D. International framework on the use of FTFs

    Under the UN Security Council Resolution 2178 (2014) “individuals who travel to a State

    other than their States of residence or nationality for the purpose of the perpetration,

    planning, or preparation of, or participation in, terrorist acts or the providing or receiving of

    terrorist training, including in connection with armed conflict” are defined as “foreign

    terrorist fighters”.

    Regardless of their ethnic origin (Armenian or non-Armenian), intention (voluntary or

    involuntary) or material motivation (paid or unpaid), all individuals leaving their countries of

    residence or nationality for the purpose of joining ongoing armed conflict are considered as

    foreign terrorist fighters.

    In the course of military aggression of Armenia against Azerbaijan, as of 06 November

    2011, 92 Azerbaijani civilians have been killed, more than 400 injured, most of them as a

    result of terrorist attacks by Armenian forces. Azerbaijan carries out counter-offensive

    operations in its sovereign soil. Therefore, Azerbaijan considers members of all armed

    groups, illegally deployed in its internationally recognized territories for the purpose of

    fighting against its Armed Forces and organizing terrorist attacks against its civilians, as

    terrorists.

    Armenia bears international legal liability for bringing terrorist groups and individuals into

    the occupied territories of Azerbaijan and for organizing terrorist activities against

    Azerbaijani civilians.

    At the same time according to the relevant operative paragraphs of the above-mentioned

    resolution and the UN Security Council Resolution 2396 (2017): the UN Member States

    “shall prevent the movement of terrorists and terrorist groups by effective border controls

    and undertake necessary punitive measures under their penal legislation”.

    In accordance with the UN Security Council resolution 2253: “Member states shall prevent

    the direct or indirect supply, sale, or transfer to these individuals, groups, undertakings and

    entities from their territories or by their nationals outside their territories, or using their flag

    vessels or aircraft, of arms and related materiel of all types including weapons and

    ammunition, military vehicles and equipment, paramilitary equipment, and spare parts for

    the aforementioned, and technical advice, assistance or training related to military

    activities”.

    Pursuant to the UN Security Council resolution 2462, the Security Council “calls upon

    Member States to conduct financial investigations in terrorism related cases and to seek

    ways to address the challenges in obtaining evidence to secure terrorist financing

  • 19

    convictions”. The Security Council “further calls upon Member States to more effectively

    investigate and prosecute cases of terrorist financing and to apply, as appropriate,

    effective, proportionate, and dissuasive criminal sanctions to individuals and entities

    convicted of terrorist financing activity”.

    Article 5 of the International Convention against the Recruitment, Use, Financing and

    Training of Mercenaries prohibits States Parties to recruit, use, finance or train mercenaries

    and shall make offences related to mercenarism punishable by appropriate penalties. The

    Convention also contains provisions outlining the responsibility of States to cooperate in

    preventing mercenary offences (Article 6) and implementing Convention (Article 7).

    According to common Article 1 of Geneva Conventions States are required to adopt all

    measures necessary to ensure respect for Geneva Conventions not only by their organs,

    but also by private individuals within their jurisdictions as well.

    Both international humanitarian law and international human rights law require States to

    take appropriate measures to bring perpetrators of violations to justice and to provide

    effective remedies to victims.

    In addition to their obligations deriving from international law and national legislation, the

    states of origin should also bear in mind that the foreign terrorist fighters taking part in

    military operations against Azerbaijani Army once being able to return to their countries of

    origin would represent a serious threat to their societies as persons involved in terrorist

    training.

    In view of the above-mentioned, the Republic of Azerbaijan strongly urges the respective

    authorities of all states, origin or transit, to exercise due diligence in light of increased

    intensity of travel by their nationals to Armenia and put in place necessary preventive

    border control measures, as well as take all steps required for not allowing their territories

    to be used for supporting or financing terrorist activities against the sovereignty and

    territorial integrity of the Republic of Azerbaijan and its civilian population.

    The Azerbaijani side is determined to take all measures stemming from its rights under

    relevant bilateral and multilateral mechanisms with a view to curbing terrorist activities

    within its internationally recognized territories and against its civilian population and bring

    the perpetrators to justice.
