Isnt that was fair bit of popular anger here all fingers pointing out. Theres also very little faith in this renewed ceasefire that was announced on sunday people here obviously saying that they could not trust the armenian side to hold their part of the deal even though i feel theres a bit of confusion over what exactly that humanitarian ceasefire is about people here think that its about and therefore still a tease when in fact its really about bringing some calm in. A calm period enough to swap bodies and did. Now the moment we dont know where that is heading we just heard from their budget and he said that they are ready to return some bodies to armenia through this prearranged cory door.
