Stepanakert, 25 August: Nagornyy Karabakh republic [NKR] parliament
speaker Ashot Ghulyan has received British House of Commons member
Stephen Pound and people accompanying him.

The NKR parliament press service reported that Pound, mentioning that
it was his first visit to Nagornyy Karabakh, said he was led by a wish
to familiarize himself with the realities here since information from
outside does not always give a realistic picture of a country.

Ghulyan expressed the hope that during their visit, the guests would
get comprehensive information about the republic through various
meetings.

Ghulyan briefed Pound on the public and political life of Nagornyy
Karabakh, the socioeconomic situation, achievements in the educational
field and pointed out priority issues and perspectives.
