Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and his wife Anna Hakobyan on Friday, December 15 had a meeting with the families of prisoners of war from Shirak region who returned to Armenia recently.
In his speech, Pashinyan noted that during these three years, everything possible was done for the return of the PoWs.
"While it's clear that we were all anxious to see them back as soon as possible, I want to thank you for your patience because it was very important. As a human being, I highly appreciate your patience," said the Prime Minister and added that everything should be done so that our brothers can return to normal life.
Armenia and Azerbaijan on Wednesday swapped prisoners of war, a first step towards normalising relations since Baku attached and captured Nagorno-Karabakh in a one-day offensive in September 2023.
