Armenia will hand over captive Telman Aliyev to the Azerbaijani side,
the Armenian ministry said today, Armenia Today reported.
Telman Aliyev will be handed over to the Azerbaijani side on
November 30.
No comment has been made from Azerbaijan yet.
It can recalled that the 40-year old Alpoud villager from the
Azerbaijani Gazakh region Telman Aliyev went missing at the
Azerbaijani-Armenian border on November 11, as he tended his cattle
and got lost in the fog.
Telman Aliyev is deaf and dumb. He got lost in the fog and crossed
the border by mistake.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. -
are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
surrounding regions.
