On July 14, the foreign affairs ministry of Armenia condemned the war in Lebanon: “Armenia is extremely concerned about the war in Lebanon and their escalation, as well as the great loss of civilian life. Armenia condemns any violence whether it be abduction or use of force. We particularly denounce the use of such disproportionate force intended solely to collectively punish civilians and damage infrastructures. This kind of reaction by Israel is difficult to understand given the fact that the Lebanese government has clearly moved itself away from the abduction incident. We hope that there will be control in the region and also hope there will be an immediate ceasefire so that the issues can be addressed by peaceful means”.
