As the government of Iraq, we are ready to negotiate about Azerbaijani women and children in the country and hold discussions on this topic." Iraqi Deputy Foreign Minister,SayidShorsh Khalid, said this in Baku, noting that assistance was provided to return children to many countries.

The State Security Service noted that over the last 5 years, up to 900 immigrants from Azerbaijan joined the LIH. Of these, 151 returned to Azerbaijan and were subsequently convicted.-0-
