Speaker of the Artsakh National Assembly Artur Tovmasyan on Tuesday met with Foreign Minister Davit Babayan at the Foreign Ministry.

Issues related to the country's foreign policy priorities were discussed. Arthur Tovmasyan referred to his meeting with Armenia’s Foreign Minister Ara Aivazian, during which the main theses voiced, according to the parliament speaker, are in line with the new realities, the parliament's press service reported. 

"Today, the security of Artsakh is the key priority. The recent so-called intensified Azerbaijani activity cannot go unanswered. The matter concerns the cases of stoning Armenian cars," Tovmasyan said.

The sides attached importance to raising these and other issues on the agenda in international organizations.

During the meeting, the need for continuing the process of the Azerbaijan-Karabakh conflict settlement within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group, as well as for the further development and deepening of relations with various countries, in particular Russia, was stressed.

David Babayan expressed confidence that in the current situation all internal resources, including parliamentary diplomacy, should be used to achieve success on the external front.

The parties agreed to hold such meetings regularly.
