STEPANAKERT. - Syrian Armenians came to Nagorno-Karabakh on their own
will, no one forced them to resettle here, spokesperson for Karabakh
President said.

the issue during the autumn session of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly.
Davit Babayan said Syrian Armenians are among those who became refugees
as a result of civil war in Syria.
"Providing aid to refugees is an international norm, a part of
international law. States have to provide such assistance to people
who found themselves in this situation. Therefore, we must help them,
because they are our compatriots," he told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
Davit Babayan noted that such hysterical behavior of Azerbaijan is
one of the pillars of state-building in this country, but this does
not mean that by using such methods,Azerbaijan will succeed and will
be able to suspend the process.
