The “Recognize to Reconcile” campaign is expanding internationally

Youth activists in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, held a series of events to mark the 30th anniversary of the Khojaly genocide.

Today within the framework of the events, the group of Indonesian protesters held a rally under the slogan “Recognize to Reconcile” in front of the Armenian embassy in Jakarta. ICYF-ERC appreciates the work of OIC Youth Indonesia and National Youth Council of Indonesia (NYC Indonesia) in organizing the rally.

During the rally, the Indonesian youth supported the initiative launched by the Amra Begic, Deputy Director of Srebrenitsa Museum and one of the victims of the Srebrenica tragedy, to call on the Armenia goverment to recognize the Khojaly genocide at the “Peace and Justice” international conference held in Vienna a few days ago. Her initiative was turned into an international campaign by the Eurasian Regional Center of Islamic Cooperation Youth Forum (ICYF-ERC).

Despite the restrictions on the pandemic, slogans were chanted to the Armenian leadership to take the responsibility for the tragedy and apologize to the Azerbaijani people during the two-hour “Justice for Khojaly” rally.
