Armenia's Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan has received a group of Karabakh war veterans pursuant to his promise.

Talking to A1+ Ishkan Sargsyan, Chairman of Shoushi 92 union of Karabakh war veterans (freedom fighters), said in the morning the premier received five veterans and discussed with them [for about two hours] their concerns.

"Tigran Sargsyan was unaware of some issues, others surprised him," he said.
