#Azerbaijan|i representative at the OPCW plays the victim game & falsely accuses Armenia in everything that Azerbaijan did, forgetting that if petrodollars & caviar diplomacy can silence some officials, there is ample documented evidence that proves otherwise.

READ the thread 👇
Azerbaijan's accusations come as a response to Armenia's representative's statement regarding the use of white phosphorus by Azerbaijan & Turkey during the military actions against #Artsakh. 👇 https://twitter.com/tbalayan/status/1333481123528192004?s=20
Claim #1: Azerbaijan does not have ANY prohibited munitions in its armament.

❌ 2008 Convention on Cluster Munitions comprehensively prohibits cluster munitions, whereas Azerbaijan repeatedly used them. 👇 https://www.hrw.org/news/2020/10/23/azerbaijan-cluster-munitions-used-nagorno-karabakh
Claim #2: Azerbaijan only attacked military targets.

❌Apparently according to AZ officials, churches, maternity hospitals, kindergardens, residential houses that were shelled and bombed were all military targets! 👇

Claim #3: Armenia used white phosphorous against Azerbaijani civilians & for smoke screening.

❌Any documented "evidence" other than a staged shell? Casualties among the civilians with textbook WP burns? Any verified (not fake!!!) videos? 👇

Claim #4: Armenia deliberately contaminates Azerbaijani rivers [with nuclear waste].

❌Baseless claim repeatedly found in AZ media, NEVER confirmed. Nuclear waste repositories are under tough control the IAEA, & it cannot be the case. 👇 https://armenpress.am/eng/news/848755 
Claim #5: White phosphorus is not a chemical weapon.

❌According to the CWC, any chemicals used against humans or animals that cause harm or death through the toxic properties of the chemical are considered chemical weapons. 👇
