The issue of refugees’ return to the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR),
can only be discussed afte the conflict has been settled, RA Foreign
Minister Edward Nalbandian told a news conference.
"The Azerbaijani side has claimed that the sides are discussing
refugees’ return to the NKR, but I will once again say what I have
already said: the issue is not being discussed now," the Minister
said. He stressed that the problem can be discussed only after security
guarantees are provided. In this context he pointed out he means the
return of 400,000 Armenian refugees as well.
