Azerbaijan is pressured to return Armenian prisoners of war to Armenia more and more every day. This is what acting Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia Ara Aivazian said in response to MPs’ questions during today’s question-and-answer session with government officials.

According to him, the issue of the Armenian POWs is in the focus of the Armenian authorities.

Aivazian stated that he is satisfied with the fact that 73 prisoners of war and civilians have been returned to Armenia through the mediation of the Russian side.

“This issue is in the focus of the international community and is on the agenda of the Co-Chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group,” the acting foreign minister emphasized.

Yesterday Azerbaijan returned three prisoners of war to Armenia.
