Subsequent support for the statement of the Eurasian Regional
Center of the Islamic Cooperation Youth Forum (ICYF-ERC) in defense
of the eco-action that has been ongoing for more than two weeks on
the Shusha-Khankendi road with the participation of Azerbaijani
social activists came from the alumni of the “International Model
OIC” clubs.
In this regard, the condemnation of the serious damage, as a
result of nearly thirty years of Armenian occupation, to the
ecological environment of Karabakh, which is currently under the
control of the Russian peacekeeping contingent, and the illegal
exploitation of natural resources, as well as support for the
legitimate demands of the Azerbaijani people, were reflected in the
statement of the clubs’ alumni.
In the statement signed by the alumni of the Model OIC program,
representing Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, the Maldives, Pakistan,
Palestine, and Tajikistan, it was requested to create suitable
conditions for Azerbaijani ecologists to conduct monitoring in the
Kyzylbulag gold mine and the Demirli copper-molybdenum mines
located in Karabakh as soon as possible.
It should be noted that the “Model OIC International Relations
Academy” program, aimed at forming and strengthening the leadership
skills of young people under the initiative of the Eurasian
Regional Center of ICYF, has been successfully implemented in
Muslim geography for 11 years. In addition to a number of issues of
international relevance, the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict was also
discussed in the conferences held within the framework of the
International Model OIC, which was co-organized in various OIC
countries with the Eurasian Regional Center of ICYF, where Muslim
students gained objective knowledge about this problem and spread
the truth of Karabakh in their own countries.
A while back Global Strategic Institute for Sustainable
Development and Youth Diplomacy Forum of Pakistan, as well as the
Indonesian Youth Council and the OIC Youth Indonesia and the
Georgian Muslim Youth Center, made similar statements of support
for the said initiative of the Eurasian Regional Center of ICYF
(ICYF-ERC).
It should be noted that the International Board of the Eurasian
Regional Center of ICYF issued a statement of support for the
environmental campaign held by Azerbaijani activists on the
Shusha-Khankendi road. With deep regret, the document noted that
for 30 years the occupied territories of Azerbaijan, and now the
lands where the Russian peacekeeping contingent (RPC) is
temporarily deployed, have been areas where it has been impossible
to conduct such monitoring. Also, to ensure the objectivity of
future monitoring, the readiness to organize a visit of a
delegation of young ecologists from the countries of the Eurasian
region to Karabakh was expressed as support for the environmental
volunteers of Azerbaijan.
