evidence: (Los Angeles)—At the invitation of ANCA Western Region in coordination with the Tatoyan Foundation, a delegation from the Syunik province of Armenia visited California from November 11-16, 2023 to meet with various elected officials and the local Armenian community to provide them with first-hand reports about Azerbaijan’s ongoing threats against Armenia and particularly the border province of Syunik and to outline the conditions on the ground as the region addresses the refugee crisis resulting from the ethnic cleansing of Artsakh. [...] During each meeting, Dr. Tatoyan presented his latest findings on Azerbaijan’s genocidal assault on Artsakh, resulting in the forced deportation of more than 100,000 Armenians from Artsakh into the Republic of Armenia. Furthermore, Dr. Tatoyan shed light on Azerbaijan’s continued aggression against the sovereign territory of Armenia, especially in the regions of Syunik, Vayots Dzor, and Gegharkunik. Mayor Parsyan and Mayor Arushanyan reported about Syunik’s security concerns, especially amidst the influx of over 5,000 Armenian refugees from Artsakh into the towns of Kapan and Goris, as well as the impact and threat of the potential establishment of a so-called "Zangezur Corridor" being advocated by Turkey and Azerbaijan.
