The annual report of the US Department of State on the state of
affairs with human rights in the world is not always based on the
necessity of estimating the state of affairs with the human rights,
RF FM Sergey Lavrov said at today 's meeting with the students and the
professor-teacher staff of the Yerevan State University, in response
to the question about the recent report of the US Department of State,
in which Nagorno Karabakh is mentioned as the " occupied territory".
As the Minister noted, this report is often used to present the
politicized assessments which, somehow or other, reflect the political
expediency for the USA at this or another moment. "It is difficult for
me to judge which motives are one or another assessments stipulated
for. I only know that no report is issued in the USA on human rights in
the States themselves. I think there are mechanisms for the necessary
dialogue on assurance of rights and freedoms of citizens. This dialogue
should be carried on without dual standards, and no country should
try to isolate itself from any critics. It is incorrect, everything
is to be built on an equal basis", S. Lavrov said.
