As a result of another landmine explosion 2 Azerbaijani citizens were severely injured. Since the 2020-war, 4⃣3⃣3⃣ people have became a victim of landmine contamination by #Armenia. This tragedy is a stark reminder of the continued human cost of landmines and the dangers faced every day by innocent people. There is an urgent need for enhanced international support for comprehensive demining efforts. A mine-free future is essential for sustainable peace, development, and human security.

On 20 June - World Refugee Day, we express our solidarity with millions of refugees and forcibly displaced persons around the world who continue to face immense hardship, uncertainty, and the loss of their homes and livelihoods. For Azerbaijan, the issue of forced displacement carries particular significance. As a result of aggression and occupation of Azerbaijan’s territories, more than one million Azerbaijanis became refugees and internally displaced persons, enduring decades of displacement and deprivation. The rights of these individuals were severely violated, while their homes, communities, and cultural heritage were destroyed. Today, following the restoration of Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity and sovereignty, the country is implementing an unprecedented reconstruction and rehabilitation program in the formerly occupied territories. Through the Great Return Program, former internally displaced persons are gradually returning to their native lands in safety, dignity, and security, rebuilding their lives and communities after years of displacement. Azerbaijan remains committed to supporting international efforts aimed at addressing the root causes of forced displacement, promoting durable solutions for refugees and internally displaced persons, and upholding the norms and principles of international law. On this World Refugee Day, we honor the resilience and courage of refugees and internally displaced persons worldwide and reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that all those forcibly displaced can one day return home and live in peace, dignity, and prosperity.
