All emails sent from or received by the mayor mentioning "Khojaly" or "Armenian" between Oct. 1, 2020 and the time this request is processed.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public free of charge as part of the public information service at MuckRock.com, processed by a representative of the news media/press and is made in the process of news gathering and not for commercial usage.
