Azerbaijan delays the return of the bodies of the victims to Armenia under false pretexts (VIDEO)

RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated that Azerbaijan continuously makes the topic of missing persons an object of speculation, trying to create the impression that only it has such a problem. According to him, Azerbaijan is trying to show that Armenia is allegedly destructive in the context of solving this humanitarian issue.

According to the Prime Minister, "This is an urgent and painful problem for the Republic of Armenia. The number of missing persons on the Armenian side from the first Karabakh war is 777, and from the 44-day war - 203. We even have 16 missing people since September 13, and the bodies of those boys are in the territories under Azerbaijani rule. Azerbaijan is delaying its return to Armenia using all possible methods and fictitious pretexts. And since 2020, the Armenian side has returned 130 bodies and samples of the missing people of the first war to Azerbaijan. It actively continues the work in that direction, which is extremely difficult due to the lack of elaborated information."
