DO NOT DICTATE TO ARMENIA

`No one must dictate to Armenia what form of governing we want to have’,
said RA Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan referring to the negative opinion
of the Venice Commission and the offer of the political Committee to include
the discussion of the Armenian Constitutional Reforms into the PACE session
agenda as an urgent issue.

He noted that we must admit the offers about the general European standards,
but the nation must decide itself what it wants. `It is the problem of the
nation’, said the Minister.

Naturally, Vardan Oskanyan preferred to speak about the RA policy directed
to the recognition of the Armenian Genocide. Oskanyan announced that Armenia
highly appreciates the resolution adopted by the Bundestag. This resolution
is especially important for the fact that Germany admits its fault in the
tragic events of 1915 and calls on Turkey to reconcile with its past.

`The Bundestag resolution is another important step in the inclusion of the
Armenian issues into the Turkish commitments to the EU the coming fall’,
said Vardan Oskanyan.
