A significant meeting took place on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border on February 7, 2025, focusing on the fate of those missing as a result of the 2020 war. Representatives from the Armenian and Azerbaijani state commissions, responsible for matters concerning prisoners of war, hostages, and missing persons, participated in the meeting.
During the meeting, the parties exchanged views on clarifying the fate of missing persons and agreed to continue discussions through mutual consent between the commissions. This meeting marks an important step towards strengthening mutual trust between the two countries and resolving humanitarian issues.
The issue of missing persons remains unresolved and a highly sensitive topic for both Armenian and Azerbaijani societies. The 2020 war claimed the lives of thousands of people, and many families still lack information about their loved ones.
