"There are no Azeris in Armenia with the exception of servicemen who
don’t want to return to Azerbaijan.
Armenia cannot ignore their wish," RA National Assembly Speaker Tigran
Torosyan said on July 19.
Today Tigran Torosyan received Ives Arnold, the head of the
International Red Cross Committee’s mission to Armenia on the occasion
of Ives Arnold’s tenure completion in Armenia.
The interlocutors noted that they don’t possess data on Armenian
prisoners in Azeri jails though their relatives occasionally get news
on them and are made different proposals in return of their freedom.
According to the RA NA Speaker lists on the missing over the past
13-14 years will involve the names of already dead and kidnapped
Armenians. He highlighted the thorough study of the RA legislation
in view of clarifying issues related to the missing.
Tigran Torosyan noted that a Standing Committee on Human Rights
Protection and Social Issues was set up in the National Assembly
which will promote the refined data.
