On Friday, delegates of the Armenian community in Switzerland met with Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis. They welcomed the humanitarian aid guaranteed by Switzerland, but called for a clear condemnation of Azerbaijan's attack on the Nagorno-Karabakh region. The Armenian delegation welcomed in a statement on Monday the assurance of humanitarian aid for the refugees in Nagorno-Karabakh. However, they called on Switzerland to label Azerbaijan's attack as a "crime against humanity" and to condemn the state for the subsequent "ethnic cleansing" that followed. The Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (EDA) reminded of its priorities: ceasefire, humanitarian access to Nagorno-Karabakh and return to the negotiating table. ©Keystone/SDA
