Azerbaijan tears down Artsakh MFA building 

ArmInfo. On the 34th anniversary of the independence of the Republic of Artsakh, Azerbaijan demolished the building of the NKR Ministry of Foreign  Affairs in occupied Stepanakert. This was reported by the Mountains  of Karabakh Telegram channel.

"The Azerbaijanis are demonstratively demolishing the building of the  Artsakh Foreign Ministry on Artsakh Independence Day - a vile and  cynical act," the channel said in a statement, which provided footage  of the destroyed building.

Earlier, the Azerbaijani regime bulldozed the buildings of the  Artsakh parliament and the "Liberator Warriors" on Revival Square in  Stepanakert, and desecrated the Surb Astvatsatsin (Holy Mother of  God) Cathedral. Since the occupation of Artsakh, a number of  neighborhoods in Stepanakert and entire villages have been  demolished.

On September 2, 1991, a joint session of the Nagorno-Karabakh  regional and Shahumyan district councils of people's deputies was  held, at which the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) was proclaimed.
