YEREVAN, DECEMBER 14, ARMENPRESS. On December 14, on the sidelines of the World Refugee Forum, Deputy Foreign Minister Vahan Kostanyan had a meeting with Leyla Kayacik, Special Representative of the Secretary General of the Council of Europe for migration and refugees, the foreign ministry said.

During the meeting the parties  referred to the situation with regards to more than 105.000 people forcibly displaced as a result of the ethnic cleansing of Nagorno-Karabakh. Vahan Kostanyan presented the steps of the Government of Armenia aimed at addressing the needs of refugees in social, economic and healthcare sectors, as well as in the legal field. It was emphasised that besides the urgent measures of response Armenia expects additional support of the international community for the implementation of mid-term and long-term programs.

Taking into account the Order of the ICJ of November 17, the importance of protecting the rights of people of Nagorno-Karabakh was reiterated.




Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
