/PanARMENIAN.Net/ ARMENIAN POLITICIAN SUPPOSES ISSUE OF RETURN OF
ARMENIAN TERRITORIES, OCCUPIED BY AZERBAIJAN, MAY APPEAR “If the
question of return of territories being controlled by Armenians in
the security belt around the Nagorno Karabakh Republic is raised, the
question of return of Armenian Shahumian and Getashen territories may
appear,” leader of the parliamentary faction of the Republican Party
of Armenia Galust Sahakian supposes. At today’s press conference
leader of the parliamentary faction of the Republican Party of
Armenia Galust Sahakian reminded that the international community was
not able to prevent the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey and the
slaughter in Sumgait (Azerbaijan). He stated it within the context of
the question of the PACE draft report on Nagorno Karabakh, being
discussed lately. Galust Sahakian called the political forces of the
country not to use the Nagorno Karabakh issue in the internal
political struggle and not to “scare the people.” He also noted that
if the question of return of territories being controlled by
Armenians in the security belt around the Nagorno Karabakh Republic
is raised, the issue of return of Armenian territories of Shahumian
and Getashen, occupied by Azerbaijan, may appear. It should be
reminded that being part of the NKR, Getashen and Shahumian regions,
which had been populated by Armenians, were seized by Azeri forces in
1991-1992 with the support of the Soviet and Russian armies. The
Armenian population was either deported or annihilated.
