Galust Sahakyan: Crew of downed helicopter will be returned

It is one thing when killers commit a crime in your territory and quite another when innocent people are killed during training exercises, the speaker of the Armenian parliament Galust Sahakyan told Aysor.am.

The head of Azerbaijani working group on POWs, hostages and missing persons Firudin Sadygov said earlier that Azerbaijan will permit to collect the bodies of the crew members of Karabakh Air Force’s downed helicopter if Azerbaijan considers it necessary.

The Armenian parliamentary speaker stressed that the helicopter did not take any unlawful actions – unlike the Azerbaijani saboteurs who infiltrated into the territory of Nagorno Karabakh.

“I don’t think that the killers’ ideas should make us come to an agreement. If our guys died, their bodies will be handed over, if they are wounded, they will also return. In any event, Azerbaijan will receive a response in one form or another,” G. Sahakyan said.
