At the same time, we bring to the attention of the authorities that it is necessary to take drastic measures to ensure the rights and social protection of invalids of the Karabakh War.

The authorities should immediately start taking steps to address the problems of the disabled of the Karabakh War," Yusifli wrote on his page on Facebook. -06D--
