"Azerbaijan’s President Aliyev is using a Stalin tactic, show trials to eliminate his enemies.

Next January 17, two criminal trials will start in Baku against Aliyev victims. 15 Nagorno-Karabakh officials, including three former presidents and other against former State Minister Ruben Vardanyan. They are already convicted.

Azerbaijan bogus charges are a cover up of the crimes committed against the Nagorno-Karabakh people including the prisoners. Their incarceration is a message to 120.000 Armenians not to return to their ancestral land in Nagorno-Karabakh.

Because the prosecution is a cover up the dictatorship could not offer fair trials.

The show trials should help to expose Aliyev dictatorship and shame his allies", wrote Ocampo in his X.
