Anti-Armenian propaganda, overfilling Azeri mass media, is getting sharper every time when war captives and hostages are released by the sides, and, as a rule, all this filth is being spread and approved by the press service of the Ministry of National Security ( MNS) of Azerbaijan and the state commission for war captives, hostages and the missing people under the guidance of MNS of Azerbaijan. It is said about this in the statement of the public relations service of the MNS of Armenia, received today by MEDIAMAX.Armenian special services declared that, "unlike Azeris, Armenians do not raid on Azeri territories, do not send sabotage groups to take hostages and prisoners for their further sale". It is said in the statement of the Armenian special services that Azeri military desert their native army, yield themselves prisoners, ask to send them to a third country or to grant them asylum in Armenia, if not citizenship. "Paradoxical as it may seem, but we persuade them to return home, we appeal to Armenian, Azeri, international humanitarian and right-protecting organizations so that the Azeri "prisoners"-deserters change their decision not to return home", - says the statement of the public relations service of the MNS of Armenia. --0-- Top stories The Cabinet of Ministers decided on Thursday, November 9 to allocated AMD 120 million to arrange the gathering.
