/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The property of Armenians exiled from Azerbaijan
at the end of the 20th century totals $5 billion, according to an
Armenian official.
"International practice doesn't offer a solution to this problem. There
is no system in the world which could oblige the perpetrator-state to
pay the damages," said Gagik Yeganyan, head of the migration division
at the Ministry of Territorial Administration.
"We helped 1100 refugees to draw up suits and address the European
Court of Human Rights. If the complaints are satisfied, 93 thousand
suits will be brought against the Azerbaijan," he said, Novosti
Armenia reports.
Some 500 thousand Armenians were deported from Azerbaijan over the
Nagorno Karabakh during the period from 1988 to 1991. 350 thousand
came to Armenia, the rest settled in CIS countries, Europe and the U.S.
