825: On the Road to Baku: Despite 2,000 missiles daily, this peace will endure and future generations will live in harmony. Tabib Azizov
Image: Tabib Azizov, resident of the Tartar District and retired law enforcement, refugee from Nagorno-Karabakh; in re: I first welcome our audience. I was a law-enforcement official and know what it is to live in wartime. These 44 days were nonetheless a new experience. On some days, 2,000 rockets landed on our district. Because we’ve lived here for a long time, and were on the Line of Control, we stockpiled food and water. If it depended on me, I'd immediately move back to my home village in Nagorno-Karabakh and build a house. It's not up to me. My children, esp my sons, will return. Not sure about my grandchildren. My message to American society is to ask you to enforce and facilitate our return to our homeland. We believe that the peace we now enjoy will endure for a long time, and future generations will coexist in peace and harmony. I note that the neighboring village to ours was Armenian. We always lived together comfortably.
