Armenian refugees urge more attention of international institutionsJune 20, 2011 - 14:00 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Resolution of the problem of Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan is the headstone for the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, according to Grigory Aivazyan, the chairman of the Assembly of Azerbaijani Armenians. “The resolution of the refugee problem is bound with the conflict settlement. On the threshold of the trilateral presidential meeting in Kazan, we would like to remind that Armenia hosts the largest number of refugees in the region. And when the mediators speak of return of refugees the matter should first of all concern the return of Armenian refugees,” Aivazyan said, expressing doubt that Azerbaijan will agree to accept Armenians back.
