Any reasonable person—I will not even say from Armenia—understands that this criminal case cannot have any international legal grounds. The Minister of Justice of Armenia, Karen Andreasyan, told this to reporters Wednesday, referring to the fact that the Prosecutor General's Office of Azerbaijan has launched a criminal case against Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) President Arayik Harutyunyan, and declared him wanted.

"The self-defense carried out by our people, the people of Artsakh as a result of the war unleashed by Azerbaijan, to prosecute here for self-defense, it seems to me, is illogical. Moreover, I cannot make even more detailed remarks now because I am not familiar with that so-called 'criminal case' which was written about in the press," Andreasyan added.
