/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia shares the position of the world powers
which abstained from vote on Azerbaijan’s resolution on Karabakh,
RA President’s spokesman Victor Soghomonyan told a briefing in Yerevan.

"All these states do know that the resolution undermines the Karabakh
peaceful process," he said.

"Adoption of the resolution by 39 UN member states was not a surprise
for Armenia. The point is how seriously Azerbaijan treats the talks
and the OSCE MG’s disapproval of the resolution, which is non-binding
anyway," Mr Soghomonyan said when responding to a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter’s question.

On March 14, with 39 votes in favor, 7 against and 100 abstentions,
the Assembly adopted the resolution "On the situation on the occupied
territories of Azerbaijan."
