/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Progress in not fixed in the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement process. Work for formation of public opinion for
a peaceful resolution is not carried out, PACE President Rene van der
Linden said at a meeting with RA NA speaker Tigran Torosian, the RA NA
press office reported.
Characterizing the assessment as exact, Mr Torosian said the most
important index in the Karabakh settlement is the opinion being formed
in Armenia, Karabakh and Azerbaijan. This index shows that no one in
Armenia or Karabakh propagandizes war and hatred towards another
nation. However, the situation is quite different in Azerbaijan. This
fact can be proved by the recent visit of Armenian and Azeri
intellectuals to Yerevan, Stepanakert and Baku. The initiative was
welcomed in Armenia and Karabakh. Azerbaijan met guests with protest
actions and sharp criticism. All this conflicts with PACE resolution
1416, which says that war and hatred must not be propagandized.
International organization will promote resolution of the conflict at
the time when they give an objective assessment to the issue,
according to Tigran Torosian
When touching upon the Armenian-Turkish relations, the PACE President
said closed doors do not lead to positive results.
In this respect, Tigran Torosian said, the Council of Europe has the
possibility to engage in the issue, for both Armenia and Turkey and
CoE members and are obliged to build relations on the basis of
European values.
