These reports come as a <a><\/a>shock to the Armenian-Canadian community and raise serious concerns about the government\u2019s commitment to human rights, international security, and justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTurkey, under the authoritarian leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has consistently demonstrated a disregard for human rights, democratic values, and the rule of law. The possible lifting of the arms embargo will not only undermine Canada\u2019s long-standing principles, but also disregard the ongoing aggression and human rights violations committed by Turkey against various populations, including the Armenian people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe ANCC calls on the Government of Canada to reconsider such a decision and to take a principled stance against the Turkish government\u2019s belligerence. By lifting the arms embargo, Canada once again risks emboldening President Erdogan\u2019s regime and perpetuating his dangerous agenda, both domestically and internationally. Such a decision will send troubling messages to the international community and will undermine Canada\u2019s commitment to human rights, peace, and justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe ANCC urges the Government of Canada to prioritize human rights, international security, and justice over short-term political considerations. We call on the government to listen to the concerns of the Armenian-Canadian community, civil society organizations, and human rights advocates who have tirelessly fought for justice and accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is our hope that the Government of Canada will reconsider its decision and take a firm stance against the Turkish government\u2019s aggression, thus affirming its commitment to the principles that define us Canadians.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(July 14, 2023, OTTAWA, ON) \u2013 Today, the Armenian National Committee of Canada issued a statement expressing its deep concerns regarding reports suggesting that the Government of Canada is considering lifting its long-standing arms embargo on Turkey. \u201cThe Armenian National Committee of Canada (ANCC) expresses its profound concerns regarding reports suggesting that the Government of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21300,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[115],"tags":[132,133,399,480],"class_list":["post-21299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-anc-canada","tag-anc-international","tag-399","tag-480"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
