This is dishonor to all of us -  archbishop about his compatriots  held in Azerbaijan

ArmInfo.On May 15, the leader of the "Tavush for the Motherland" movement, Archbishop Bagrat 

Galstanyan, in a conversation with journalists, touched upon the illegal detention of the military-political leadership of Artsakh in a Baku prison.

"This is a dishonor to all of us. What does it mean that Armenians 

are in Baku prisons today? We're all there. Those who are there are 

all of us, this is our collective presence in the Baku prison, this 

is dishonor, this is a shame on all of us," Srbazan emphasized.  He 

assessed the inaction of the authorities of the Republic of Armenia 

as the behavior of Judas: nothing is being done to free our 

compatriots from the Baku prison.  "This is the story of Judas. They 

sat with these people at the same table, shared bread and salt, who 

knows, maybe even drank liters of vodka, Artsakh mulberry vodka," 

recalled Bagrat Galstanyan.

Earlier today, Azerbaijani media reported on the extension of the 

period of detention of the military-political leadership of Artsakh, 

captured and illegally held in a Baku prison. As part of the criminal 

case fabricated against them, the Baku court extended the period of 

illegal detention of Bako Sahakyan, Arayik Harutyunyan, David 

Babayan, David Ishkhanyan, Levon Mnatsakanyan and David Manukyan for 

another 5 months. Earlier, the Azerbaijani side announced the 

extension of the detention period of Arkady Ghukasyan.
