Announcement on liberation of Shusha spurs celebrations in Baku - LA Times
By Trend
The Los Angeles Times news agency has published an article highlighting the thoughts and emotions on the current state of Nagorno Karabakh conflict of Azerbaijanis who were displaced during the first Karabakh war, Trend reports.
In an article named “War uprooted them. Now it gives these Azerbaijanis hope” the author brings up quotes of many Azerbaijani IDPs, including Riza Hassanov, who, as the agency said, brightens at the mention of the fighting: “We’re happier than ever. We think we’re almost there. We rely on the army and believe in it.”
“For those displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh and its surrounding areas, who now number more than 1 million people spread among schools, dormitories and other temporary housing throughout Azerbaijan, it’s a reckoning long overdue,” the agency said.
“We don’t want another cease-fire. We’re only thinking of moving forward. Here in this school we feel like we’re in a cage,” the agency quotes Hassanov’s wife, 54-year-old Rana.
