UN court to hold hearings on Armenia’s suit against Azerbaijan on Oct. 12

The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, will hold public hearings in the case concerning Application of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (Armenia v. Azerbaijan) on Thursday 12 October, the court said in a press release.

The hearings will be devoted to the request for the indication of provisional measures submitted by Armenia on 28 September 2023.

Armenia filed a lawsuit against Azerbaijan with the International Court of Justice on September 28.

“The Republic of Armenia, referring to Article 41 of the Statute and Article 73 of the Rules of Court, submitted a request to the Court yesterday for the indication of provisional measures, “to preserve and protect rights enshrined in the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (‘CERD’)”. Armenia requests the Court to indicate the following provisional measures, and to reaffirm Azerbaijan’s obligations,” ICJ said.

Yerevan urges the UN court to confirm Azerbaijan’s obligations on rejecting “any actions directly or indirectly aimed at or having the effect of displacing the remaining ethnic Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh.”

The claim says that “Azerbaijan shall refrain from taking any measures which might entail breaches of its obligations under the CERD.”

Yerevan expects that Baku “shall refrain from taking punitive actions against the current or former political representatives or military personnel of Nagorno-Karabakh” and “shall not alter or destroy any monument commemorating the 1915 Armenian genocide or any other monument or Armenian cultural artefact or site present in Nagorno-Karabakh.”
