STRASBOURG, JUNE 28, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. The terms of visit
to Armenia, Azerbaijan, Nagorno Karabakh of the ad hoc committee on

the June 28 meeting of RA NA Speaker, head of the Armenian delegation
in PACE Tigran Torosian, head of the Azerbaijani delegation in PACE
Samad Seidov and reporter of CE Sub-committee on Nagorno Karabakh
issue Russel Jonston in Strasbourg.

Torosian in spring and now it consists of heads of Armenian and
Azerbaijani delegations, one opposition MP from each delegation,
reporters of the Monitoring Committee on the two countries,
Sub-committee Chairman Lord Russel Jonston, author of the regional
report on missing people Leo Platvoet. Taking into consideration
the fact that a sitting of PACE Monitoring Committee will be held
in Yerevan in the second decade of October and a sitting of the
Committee on Political Issues in the second decade of November
in Baku, a preliminary agreement was reached about organizing the
Sub-committee’s visit during the last week of October.
As Noyan Tapan was informed from RA NA Public Relations Department,
the Sub-committee’s visit will have a cognitive character and the
meetings in Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan will serve for
this purpose.
Sub-committee Chairman Russel Jonston proposed discussing the
idea of holding a joint seminar with participation of parliament
representatives during the visit.
