Naira Zohrabyan addressed the women leaders of Europe on the issue of the captured Maral Najaryan

Naira Zohrabyan, a member of the Prosperous Armenia faction of the RA National Assembly, addressed the women leaders of Europe on the issue of Lebanese-Armenian Maral Najaryan, which she informed the public about on her Facebook page.

“Lebanese-Armenian Maral Najaryan came to Armenia after the explosion in the port of Beirut. Maral settled in Berdzor and the very next day after the end of the war, on November 11, she left for Berdzor to transport her personal belongings to Yerevan and was taken prisoner on the Goris-Stepanakert road.

Azerbaijan has already officially confirmed the fact of Maral’s captivity and according to Davit Shahnazaryan, Maral is in the Gubistan prison, about 70 km from Baku. Maral had come to live in Artsakh, she was taken prisoner the day after the capitulation.

I appealed to the women leaders of Europe, to all the structures dealing with human rights, to the issues of women, so that the latter would force Azerbaijan to return Maral and all the other prisoners of war.

I appealed to all the women of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe to call on Azerbaijan, the wife of Aliyev, a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador, to immediately return Maral Najaryan, a civilian, to Armenia.

I appealed to UNESCO, which calls the wife of the president of a war criminal country a goodwill ambassador, so that UNESCO, within its mandate, demand from its Azerbaijani goodwill ambassador not to spit on international humanitarian law and keep Armenian prisoners of war and Maral Najaryan as a political currency and that “According to the 3rd Generation Convention, all prisoners of war must be returned to Armenia immediately,” Zohrabyan wrote on her Facebook page.
