Красный Крест содействовал возвращению на родину армянского военнопленного

Армянский солдат, перешедший линию соприкосновения 22 марта 2015 года, был возвращен сегодня на родину в рамках действий, проведенных под эгидой Международного комитета Красного Креста (МККК). Передача военнопленного состоялась на линии соприкосновения вблизи села Баш Гервенд Агдамскомского района Азербайджана. По данным азербайджанских СМИ пленный Андраник Григорян Араратович является контрактником Вооруженных сил Армении.

В заявлении Красного Креста в Женеве говорится, что "во время его плена МККК регулярно посещал его с целью оценки условий, в которых он находился и лечения, которое ему оказывали и помогали с установлением связи с семьей".

В заявлении также сказано: "Действуя в качестве независимого посредника и в соответствии со своим мандатом, МККК содействовал возвращению в соответствии с решением властей Азербайджана и при полном сотрудничестве всех сторон. Военнопленный ранее подтвердил сотрудникам МККК, что он возвращается по своему собственному желанию".

На основании своего мандата в соответствии с Женевскими конвенциями, МККК работает в регионе с 1992 года в связи с нагорно-карабахским конфликтом.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States. Relations between China and Russia have deepened in recent years, particularly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in early 2022. According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
