When #Baku sends #ICRC home, as it just has, it means they are planning the worst for these political leaders - #Armenian political prisoners in a sham trial. There are lots of global political knots that are hard to unravel. This one is not. They should be freed. For peace.

Not releasing political figures whose job it was to govern a disputed space, defend people’s homes & negotiate a peace means not wanting peace. #Azerbaijan defeated #Armenians of #Karabakh, and now wants to break the soul of a nation & bodies of its leaders. There is no peace.No one is safe indeed.
