BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 4. As an original
co-sponsor Azerbaijan welcomes the adoption of the resolution “The
Impact of Anti-Personnel Mines on the Full Enjoyment of All Human
Rights” at HRC58, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry wrote on its X
page, Trend
The ministry state that adopted today, on International Day for
Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action the resolution paves
the way for taking global mine action to historically new level
through recognizing and restoring affected human rights of millions
of land-mine victims globally.
"As the country affected by massive contamination of landmines
and other ERWs as a result of 3 decades-long occupation of its
territories by Armenia, Azerbaijan will continue its efforts at
national and international levels to ensure “respect for
obligations under international human rights and humanitarian laws”
in respect to rights of land mine victims.
We also underscore importance of the call in the resolution upon
States “to cooperate effectively to address the impact of
anti-personnel mines on the protection and promotion of all human
rights by, inter alia, accelerating demining efforts”.
Fulfillment of this call as well as obligations under
humanitarian law requires State to also share accurate information
to help mapping the landmine planted areas, which is instrumental
for protection of civilian population in particular in
post-conflict settings.
In this regard we once again call on Armenian side to respect
its obligations under international human right and humanitarian
law and share accurate information on land mines massively planted
on the territory of Azerbaijan during the occupation.
We will also continue our efforts to support international
cooperation to ensure practical steps on restoring rights of LMVs
in full and strengthening victim assistance," the ministry
