Ali Hasanov said that Armenian armed forces occupied Shusha and Lachin by being supported by the former Minister of Defence of Russia Pavel Grachov. And P.Grachov’s mother’s being an Armenian is not a secret for anyone.

On 18 May 1992, Lachin was occupied by Armenian armed forces with the support of Grachov. Ali Hasanov, mentioning the great role of Russia in settling Nagorno Karabakh conflict, said he was sure that newly elected president of Russia, Vladimir Putin would help to fairly settle the conflict. The Deputy Prime Minister said that owing to purposeful policy of the President Ilham Aliyev, Armenian-Azerbaijan, Nagorno Karabakh conflict would positively be settled and all the occupied territories would be released. Nurlana Nursuz, an IDP from Lachin region, a child of a martyr, taken captive by the enemies when she was one year old, losing her mother in captivity and completely being deprived of her eyesight as a result of brutal behaviours of Armenian militants, talked about the troubles she had got into.
