In an interview with Armenpress, Mane Gevorgyan stated, “Today, 15 of our prisoners of war held in Azerbaijan returned home. The process took place with the mediation of the authorities of the USA and Georgia, for which the government of the Republic of Armenia expresses its gratitude to the US presidential administration and the government of Georgia.
