Red Cross last visited Armenian hostages in Baku in March, says organization’s representative

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) last visited Armenian prisoners held in Baku in March, Zara Amatuni, Head of Public Relations Department at the ICRC Armenia office, told ABCmedia.

When asked how they plan to maintain contact with Armenian prisoners after the closure of the ICRC office in Baku, Amatuni responded:

“Our organization is negotiating with the authorities to have a continued presence in certain areas. I cannot specify how exactly this will be implemented,” Amatuni said.

To remind, in March 2025, Azerbaijan’s state media announced that they would not extend the agreement with the ICRC. According to Baku, they no longer need the international organization.
