Leonid Azgaldyan (1942-1992) is a Hero of the Artsakh War. He was one of the first volunteers to come to the defense of Shahumyan district and Artsakh as a whole.
In the interview presented below, standing against the backdrop of Shahumyan, Azgaldyan argues that Shahumyan and Getashen populations should be protected from deportation by Azerbaijan and that the surrender of these historical Armenian lands cannot be allowed.
