BAKU, Azerbaijan, August 30. Azerbaijan expects
from partners to convince Armenia to sincerely cooperate on the
issue of missing persons, said the Head of sector Presidential
Administration Habib Mikayilli, Trend reports.
Mikayilli made the remark at a conference on 'Identification of
missing persons - humanitarian approach' dedicated to the
International Day of the Missing Persons and organized by
Azerbaijan's State Commission for the Affairs of Hostages and
Missing Persons together with the International Committee of Red
Cross.
According to him, Azerbaijan appreciates the recent engagement
of the EU. Especially, the statements of the President of the EU
Council Charles Michel made last December called for the full
resolution of all outstanding humanitarian issues, such as the
release of further detainees and addressing the fate of missing
persons.
'To solve this issue we need cooperation, political will from
the Armenian side is needed,' Mikayilli emphasized.
He noted that thanks to the efforts of Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliyev, the issue of missing persons gained more
prominence.
'Now we expect from Armenia to provide Azerbaijan with
information on exact location of the burial sites and mass graves.
After the second Karabakh war, Armenia submitted a few maps on mass
graves, but unfortunately we could not find anything,' he said.
