May 22, Fineko/abc.az. "Armenia is ready to discuss the extradition of two Azerbaijani soldiers."

ABC.AZ reports that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said about this at a press conference today.

"Armenia is ready to discuss the extradition of two Azerbaijani soldiers, but this process cannot be unilateral," Pashinyan said.

The soldiers of the Azerbaijani army, Agshin Babirov (born in 2004) and Huseyn Akhundov (born in 2003), who went missing some time ago on the territory of Shahbuz district of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic because of limited visibility under adverse weather conditions, were captured by the Armenian side.

Agshin Babirov and Huseyn Akhundov are accused of "illegally crossing the state border of Armenia, carrying firearms and ammunition", and are under arrest.
