The Catholicos specifically called for Trump\u2019s intervention in securing the immediate and unconditional release of Armenian prisoners, including former leaders of Artsakh, who have been subjected to closed-door trials in Baku without due process or international oversight. He emphasized that such a move would contribute to regional stability, foster goodwill, and align with Trump\u2019s stated peace-making mission. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
