Ukraine’s Foreign Office Must Present Official Position On Boris Tar

UKRAINE’S FOREIGN OFFICE MUST PRESENT OFFICIAL POSITION ON BORIS TARASYUK’S STATEMENT – ARMENIAN MP

14:11 * 19.03.15

Boris Tarastyuk, Ukraine’s representative at Euronest, who was
critical of Armenia’s position on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,
has completed his mission as chairman and handed the office over to
Georgia’s representative Viktor Dolidze.

In an interview with Tert.am, Tevan Poghosyan, an MP of the Heritage
party, noted that the Ukrainian ex-FM has always had a pro-Azerbaijani
position. At a meeting with reporters in Armenia’s Parliament on
Wednesday Mr Tarasyuk made an insulting remark that Armenia is wrong
in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

“We have a clear position on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict: we believe
Armenia is wrong,” he said.

The Armenian community in Ukraine must respond to Mr Tarasyuk’s
statement, and Ukraine’s foreign office must present Ukraine’s official
position n the basis of relevant reports by Armenia’s mass media.

“It should be realized who says and what are the circumstances.

Tarasyuk is a member of a small group in the Ukrainian Rada now. He is
ex-minister of foreign affairs, who has always had a pro-Azerbaijani
stance. This may have been a particularly sad day in his life because
he lost the post co-chairman at Euronest in rotation.” Mr Poghosyan
said.
