Several more detainees are to be released in the coming weeks. Michel said this after the trilateral meeting of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and European Council President Charles Michel in Brussels, referring to the issues of prisoners and held persons.
“Those soldiers who simply lost their way and crossed to the other side will continue to be released under an accelerated procedure,” he said. The importance of clarifying the fates of missing persons and intensifying demining efforts was also discussed.
After the meeting, the President of the European Council held a press conference, during which he said that the parties have decided that the next step will be the delimitation of borders based on the 1991 Alma-Ata Declaration.
