Armenian foreign ministry slams Bakuâs statement on POWs as lie
Anna Nagdalyan stated that Azerbaijan was not providing data on the Armenian prisoners of war to the European Court of Human Rights
YEREVAN, March 16. /TASS/. Armenian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Anna Nagdalyan has dismissed as lie a statement of Azerbaijani top diplomat Jeyhun Bayramov that the country had handed over all prisoners of war in accordance with its commitments, the Armenian Foreign Ministry’s press service said. This is another lie of the Azerbaijani side on this topical humanitarian issue. The Azerbaijani foreign minister’s statement runs counter to the data of other respective bodies of this country, which confirmed the presence of dozens of Armenian prisoners of war in Azerbaijan, who were captured both during the fighting and after the ceasefire was established, Nagdalyan said.
He also again emphasized that Azerbaijan is still withholding Armenian prisoners of war
YEREVAN, March 16. /TASS/. Armenian Foreign Minister Ara Aivazian has revealed that Armenian heritage is being destroyed in Nagorno-Karabakh’s Hadrut District, noting that it inhibits efforts to establish long-lasting peace in the region. The destruction of Armenian heritage in [Nagorno] Karabakh’s Hadrut District and creation of Azerbaijani residential communities there cannot serve as a basis to establish long-lasting peace in the region, he said Tuesday at a press conference with Ann Linde, Foreign Minister of Sweden, current chair of the OSCE.
He also again emphasized that Azerbaijan is still withholding Armenian prisoners of war.
