Armenian and Azerbaijani Delegations' Meeting in Strasbourg
On January 25 in Strasbourg the Armenian and Azerbaijani delegations
met within the framework of the PACE Ad Hoc Committee on Nagorno
Karabakh. The Chairman of the Committee Lord Russell Johnston
presented future activities. Agreements were reached on a number of
questions:
1. The Committee will visit the region - Armenia, Azerbaijan and
Nagorno Karabakh - in the first half of 2007, to have meetings;
2. everything should be done to fulfill theResolution 1416;
3. propaganda of hatred and war-like statements should be stopped;
4. the meetings should continue for the benefit of further
development of relations.
According to the President of the RA National Assembly, Head of the
Armenian Delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of
Europe Mr. Tigran Torosyan, one can speak about the results of such
meetings only after the speeches delievered during the next PACE
session, and there will not be any slanders, propaganda of hatred,
dissemination of falsehood. Only then we can say that these meetings
are useful. Otherwise, it is difficult to expect any use, since such
meetings are not addressed at the resolution of the issue (they
cannot be addressed at that), but can promote the improvement of the
atmosphere and more or less settlement of relations.
