/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The session of the NKR-Armenia Interparliamentary
Cooperation Commission in Stepanakert was held in a business
atmosphere, Armenian NA Vice-Speaker, Commission Co-Chair Tigran
Torosyan stated at a news conference in Stepanakert today. In his
words, matters of enhancing economic integration of Armenia and NK,
effective interparliamentary cooperation, as well as settlement of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict, working out the NKR Constitution, making
it comply with the European standards were discussed at the meeting.
Commenting on discussion of the NK issue in European structures, the
Armenian NA Vice-Speaker remarked the PACE members always underscore
that within the process of settlement the principle of people's right
to self-determination should be taken into consideration without
fail. In his words, the CE sees its task not in finding a solution,
but forming a favorable atmosphere for conflict settlement. The
PACE Interim Commission on NK is scheduled to visit NKR in October,
Torosyan also reported.
Answering journalists' questions, the Armenian Parliament Vice-Speaker
said that including NKR NA representatives in Armenian parliamentary
delegations to European structures is impossible. At the same time
he emphasized, "we will try to find ways to attain better efficiency
for our joint activities."
Touching upon the stand of official Baku, which insists on settlement
of the conflict based on the principle of territorial integrity of
states exclusively, T. Torosyan emphasized that the NKR and the
Karabakh issue have nothing to do with territorial integrity of
Azerbaijan. "I think I. Aliyev will keep speaking about territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan even after international recognition of NKR
independence," the Armenian NA Vice-Speaker said. In his opinion,
it is necessary to respect both principles, however in case of NK,
which determined itself in compliance with the international law,
exactly that principle prevails, reports Mediamax.
