Spokesman for the Armenian President urged not to forget the

the OSCE member-states
Yerevan, May 11. /Mediamax/. The Spokesman for the Armenian President
Viktor Soghomonian urged today not to forget the principle of
preservation of friendly-neighborly relations between the OSCE
member-states.
Viktor Soghomonian said this, commenting today on Mediamax’s request
on the statement of the Spokeswoman of the OSCE Office for Democratic
Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) Urdur Gunnarsdottir, who said
that the refusal to receive the Turkish observers `evidences the
insufficient transparency of the pre-election campaign in Armenia’.
`The official representative of the Armenian Foreign Ministry has
already commented on this issue. In conditions of absence of
diplomatic relations between our countries, the initiative to send
observers really looks strange. What concerns the statement of the
OSCE ODIHR Spokeswoman, in particular, the statement on `the
violation of an important principle of OSCE’, in this case one should
mention another principle not of less importance as well, the
principle of preservation of friendly-neighborly relations between
the OSCE member-states. I am sure that only in this context the
picture will be full’, Viktor Soghomonian stated in an interview to
Mediamax.–0–
