Azerbaijani Community Triumphs at Edmonton’s Multicultural Festival

TORONTO – The Network of Azerbaijani Canadians (NAC) announces the new 2023-2024 Board of Directors, voted by the organization members across Canada.

Positive developments from the South Caucasus region regarding Azerbaijan and Armenia. Azerbaijan had offered Armenia a peace treaty based on the mutual recognition of sovereignty and territorial integrity, which was the basis of the EU-facilitated peace negotiations over the past year.

Throughout 30 years of Armenia's UN-condemned occupation of Azerbaijan's sovreign regions, Armenian forces decimated approximately 10,000 square kilometres of Azerbaijan’s territory. Entire Azerbaijani cities, towns and hundreds of villages — once home to 750,000 Azerbaijanis, who were all forcibly displaced — were looted and razed to the ground. All semblance of life was deliberately targeted. Centuries-old cultural heritage lays destroyed.

Attempts by different interest groups to sway Canada’s policies to favour one side or the other are detrimental to Canada’s global standing.
