Official Yerevan continues to work toward the release of Armenians held in Azerbaijan, including former leaders of Nagorno-Karabakh. Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan expressed this view in a conversation with journalists on March 23.

The Minister assured that he prefers to work rather than talk. Welcoming the release of four civilians, the Minister emphasized that the release of all prisoners would strengthen the peace established between Armenia and Azerbaijan. According to him, work is ongoing but has yet to yield results.
