Armenian Parliament Speaker Tigran Torosyan received today the
delegation of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly headed by Goran
Lenmarker.
Tigran Torosyan concisely presented the political life in Armenia,
turning to the works accomplished after the Constitutional
amendments. He laid special emphasis on conducting the parliamentary
elections in compliance with European standards, since these are of
particular importance for the further progress of the county.
The OSCE PA President also turned to the parliamentary elections,
stressing their importance. In his opinion, Armenia has all
prerequisites to hold free and fair elections. He expressed
gratitude for the active work of the Armenian delegation in the OSCE
Parliamentary Assembly and expressed hope that the delegation will
play a significant role also in the upcoming discussion of the energy
security issues.
NA Chairman highly appreciated the OSCE Minsk Group activity,
noting that a good formula has been found, which can lie in the
basis of settlement. It is the combination of two principles of the
Helsinki Final Act - territorial integrity and the self-determination
of peoples. He noted that Armenia is ready for cooperation, but
anticipates loyalty to European standards in all countries and
considers that the Karabakh issue is a very sensitive one and the
principles of European structures should not be sacrificed for the
sake of some objectives.
