Ms. McPherson and I had the privilege of travelling to Armenia recently and meeting with refugees from Nagorno-Karabakh. All the people we spoke with wanted the same thing, to return to Nagorno-Karabakh. Until that happens, three issues really concern me.
First, how do we protect cultural heritage sites until a peace deal is struck?
Second, how do we prevent these people's homes from being occupied, which would make their return impossible?
Third and finally, how do we help those refugees briefly return home to retrieve important documents or pets they left behind in the rush to leave?
