If he hadn’t opened fire, we would have returned the soldier to Azerbaijan – Pashinyan

If the Azerbaijani soldier had not opened fire, we would have returned him that day.

elchi reports that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this.

“The soldier opened fire, harmed a citizen, entered people’s homes. If none of this had happened, we would have returned the soldier to Azerbaijan that day. But now it is a problem,” he said.

It should be noted that information about the soldier of the Azerbaijani Army, Nasimi Musayev, crossing the border and being detained in Armenia was spread on October 1. On October 2, a two-month pre-trial detention measure was chosen against him. N. Musayev is accused of leaving his military unit without permission since September 26.
