YEREVAN, OCTOBER 24, ARMENPRESS. The International Committee of the Red Cross Baku Delegation representatives visited Nagorno-Karabakh former presidents Arkadi Ghukasyan, Bako Sahakyan and Arayik Harutyunyan, former minister of state Ruben Vardanyan, former foreign minister David Babayan, former Defense Army commander Levon Mnatsakanyan and former National Assembly speaker Davit Ishkhanyan.
"The visit took place on October 20, within the framework of ICRC standard procedures. The detainees were given an opportunity to contact their relatives," Zara Amatuni, Communication and Prevention Program Manager of the ICRC Armenia office, told Armenpress.
"During October, the ICRC representatives once again visited all previously arrested Armenians in Azerbaijan. Visits will be continuous," added Amatuni.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
