More than 200 French scholars, writers, actors and other cultural figures and celebrities signed a joint article-call expressing solidarity with the Armenians of Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh), and drawing attention to the existing risk of an ethnic cleansing by Azerbaijan in Nagorno Karabakh and the ongoing blockade of the Lachin Corridor.
The article is titled We Must Save the 120,000 Armenians of Artsakh and was published in the Le Figaro newspaper.
The signatories include actors Jean Reno, Pierre Richard, Carole Bouquet, Virginie Ledoyen, filmmakers Costa-Gavras and Claude Lelouch, writers Sylvain Tesson and Pascal Bruckner and many other renowned individuals.
