  • DM Hopes ICRC Would Correctly Report Absence of Hostages in Armenia

    SERGE SARGSIAN EXPRESSES HOPE THAT IN FUTURE ICRC REPORTS TO REFLECT
    REALITY, ABSENCE OF HOSTAGES IN ARMENIA

    YEREVAN, APRIL 7, NOYAN TAPAN. Serge Sargsian, the Secretary of the RA
    National Security Council, the Defence Minister received on April 7
    Jakob Kellenberger, the Chairman of the International Committee of Red
    Cross (ICRC). Isabelle Barras, the ICRC responsible for Eastern Europe
    and Yves Arnoldy, head of the ICRC Armenian delegation participated in
    the meeting. Serge Sargsian attached importance to the ICRC activity
    in Armenia, mentioning that this considerably supports solution of
    some problems arisen in front of the state. Emphasizing that the
    bilateral cooperation promotes rather actively and productively,
    J.Kellenberger expressed gratitude for the assistance showed by the RA
    Government, particularly, the Ministry of Defence. Touching upon the
    works implemented till today in the direction of finding out people
    lost traceless, the sides facted that beneficial conditions have
    always existed in Armenia for the ICRC employees' activity, and
    obstacles have never been created. In this sense considering baseless
    the information periodically published in press by the Azerbaijani
    authorities about people lost traceless and hostages kept in Armenia,
    Serge Sargsian expressed a hope that the ICRC reports will reflect the
    reality in future, thus, the fact of absence of hostages in
    Armenia. As Noyan Tapan was informed by Colonel Seyran Shahsuvarian,
    the RA Defence Minister's Press Secretary, the participants of the
    meeting exchanged opinions concerning the present stage of settlement
    of the Karabakh conflict. Within the context of the negotiation
    process, the Minister considered causing anxiety the continuous
    martial statements of the high-ranking authorities of Azerbaijan and
    encouriging of interracial hatred among the people.
