Politics and Patriotism: Issue of return of refugees to Armenia remains “urgent” for Azerbaijan

By Naira Hayrumyan

The issue of the return of refugees to places of their former residence is one of the key issues in the Karabakh conflict settlement and it has been included in the OSCE-proposed “Madrid principles” as a humane act upon Azerbaijan’s demand.

In 1989 Armenian authorities paid $110 to azeries that left Armenia? Interesting, I never heard of it. How did it work, they were paid flat amount before they left? Before they put on the table issue of returning azeri refugees to Artsakh they should discuss returning Armenian refugees to Baku and other cities and their compensation as those events happened before Karabagh war. Also, right of Armenians to return to Nakichevan has to be guaranteed as they were driven out of there through ethnic cleansing policies of azerbadjan and Nakichevan had an autonomous status.
