Next month COP 29, the UN’s flagship climate conference, is once again going to be hosted by an authoritarian petrostate - Azerbaijan. In the build up to COP29, human rights organizations, civil society groups, and major news outlets have all shared their concerns about Azerbaijan’s human rights record - from its aggression in the Caucasus against Armenians to its crackdown on dissidents at home. Aram Hamparian, the Executive Director of the Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA), joins Thanos Davelis to look into the growing pressure on Azerbaijan, and break down why COP29 should matter to anyone who believes in human rights.
