The presentation of the Armenia’ s approaches over the negative role
of the resumed sub commission of PACE on the NK affairs by President
of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan at the Council of Europe Parliamentary
Assembly’s (PACE) summer session in Strasburg were very convincing,
chairman of the NA’s National Security, Home Affairs and Defense
Standing Committee Hrayr Karapetyan said at a news conference today.
“The arguments of Armenia’s non-participation forwarded by
the President were quite convincing as the motivations of the
sub-commission are not understandable at all. Besides it is not known
whether the commission will contribute or will impede the process
within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group which is more competent
and has passed a quite long way for the settlement of the conflict”,
Karapetyan said.
According to him, the speech of the president of the Republic at
the PACE sitting was of diplomatic nature and was directed to the
PACE audience and international establishments. He said the goal is
to show that Azerbaijan elaborates anti-Armenian racist propaganda
in Azerbaijan.
