Support A1+!Armenia (ICRC). On 9 February 2004, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), acting as a neutral intermediary, facilitated the transfer of one Azerbaijani military serviceman and handed him over to the concerned Azerbaijani authorities.
The operation took place between Yeraskhavan and Nakhijevan with the full cooperation of all sides.
ICRC delegates had visited the Azerbaijani military serviceman, who expressed his wish to be handed over to the Azerbaijani authorities.
In accordance with its mandate, the ICRC has provided its assistance in organizing such operations in the region since 1992 and stands ready to support any similar operation in the future.
