Azerbaijan must create conditions for safe return of Armenians to Nagorno-Karabakh, UK says
The UK government is clear that Azerbaijan must create the conditions for a safe and secure return of ethnic Armenians who were displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) during September's military operation and want to return, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State Leo Docherty said in response to a question by MP Andrew Bridgen.
He was asked to say whether the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office is taking diplomatic steps to help ensure the right of return to Nagorno-Karabakh of Christian Armenians.
“Ministers and officials have discussed these issues with the Azerbaijani Government and encourage Azerbaijan to be proactive in enabling the return of those who wish to do so,” Docherty added.
