Armenian Security Council Sec accuses Russia of surrendering Karabakh  to Azerbaijan 

ArmInfo.Secretary of the Security Council of Armenia Armen Grigoryan accused Russia of surrendering Karabakh to Azerbaijan.

On June 26, in a conversation with journalists, he said that Russia  came to Nagorno-Karabakh, handed it over to Azerbaijan and returned  to Russia.

"When Armenia was completely dependent on Russia, didn't we have a  war? We did. Let's record that we ended up in a war because of this  situation, we tried to bring stability with these changes and are  confident that these changes will bring stability," the secretary  said Security Council, talking about changing the foreign policy  vector.

Grigoryan emphasized that it was Russia that seized Nagorno-Karabakh,  without its permission there would have been no war.

Answering the question about the return of Armenian prisoners from  Azerbaijan, the Security Council Secretary noted that this problem  remains a priority for the Armenian authorities. He noted that the  issue of the return of prisoners is constantly discussed with the  Azerbaijani side and international partners, and active work is being  carried out in this direction. At the same time, Grigoryan believes  that it is wrong to connect this issue with the signing of a peace  treaty, since the Armenian side believes that the prisoners should be  returned as soon as possible. He noted that peace between countries  must be comprehensive and the return of prisoners is an integral part  of this process.
