"We deeply regret that the unresolved Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is

clashes. We express deep condolences to the families and friends of
K.Petrosyan and to other families of Armenians and Azerbaijanis who
have lost their lives. We consider it necessary to conduct thorough

Armenia and the Russian Federation as of 27 October 2010 on the return
of bodies with the assistance of the OSCE Minsk Group and the
International Committee of the Red Cross.

August 7, and on the next day Azerbaijani side reported about his
death of "a heart failure". Armenian investigation committee has
launched a criminal case.
