Armenia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations:

The guiding principle of the Azeri propaganda machine is "if you tell a big lie and keep telling it, people will believe it," Armenia's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Karen Nazaryan said regarding the propaganda letters Azerbaijan keeps spreading in the UN.

"We are not surprised at the aggressive style of Azerbaijan, whose president has publicly called the Armenians fascists and enemies. This chauvinism is a way for the Azeri authorities to evade responsibility for the consequences of their aggression against Nagorno-Karabakh and the Khojalu crimes against their own people," Nazaryan said,

He said that in response to Azerbaijan's letters, Armenia's official positions would be made known to the UN Secretary General and member-states and would be published in the press.

Leaders urge 'de-escalation' as G7 Summit in Canada is overshadowed by Middle East conflict

The G7 summit, a gathering of major world leaders meeting at Kananaskis, in the Canadian Rockies, has concluded with a joint leaders statement urging a "de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza". It stopped short of calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. The leaders' statement, published as US President Trump left Canada, said Israel had a right to defend itself, and that Iran was a source of terror that should not have a nuclear weapon. According to the BBC, its call for a resolution of the crisis that led to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East amounted to a diplomatic compromise that preserved G7 unity but watered down the statement's impact.
