By blocking the Lachin Corridor, a road that is our lifeline to nearby Armenia and to the world, Azerbaijan has created an ever-worsening humanitarian crisis that has reached a catastrophic tipping point in recent days.
About 2,000 pregnant women, 30,000 children, 20,000 elderly people, and 9,000 others with disabilities are caught in the throes of malnutrition, deprivation, and lack of medicine.
My family roots run deep in Nagorno-Karabakh. My parents endured the events of the first Nagorno-Karabakh war in the early 1990s, which was successfully fought to avoid exactly what we see today—the ethnic cleansing of Armenians by the authoritarian leadership in Azerbaijan. My grandparents, parents, and neighbors always shared stories about the Armenian Genocide of 1915, the Baku pogroms and Sumgait massacre of the 1980s, but I couldn't fathom such atrocities taking place once again in my lifetime. I dreamed of a world where my children would not confront the threat of genocide. That dream is obviously in great danger.
