We’re aware that the representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) have met with Armenian captives in Azerbaijan.

Being a neutral party, we must follow the established order, the head of PR department at ICRC representation in Yerevan, Ashot Astabatsyan stated.

In a conversation with PanARMENIAN.Net reporter he refrained from providing information on the state Armenian captives, not having been authorised to divulge such information.

Dwelling on the return of the captives to their native land, Astabatsyan said the issue is under discussion.

“ICRC will assist in the return of captives as soon as agreement is reached,” he noted.
