Today, President Serzh Sargsyan invited leaders of the political
parties registered and acting in Armenia to conduct discussions on the
subject of the "Peaceful resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict".
Before turning to the matter at hand, the President of Armenia said,
"First of all, I would like to congratulate all of us on the occasion
of an outstanding performance of our chess players at the World
Olympiad. I am confident that many of us here, and not only us,
but also our people were waiting particularly for the news from
Dresden, and this news, at least for me, is very inspirational. I
think we should all together support our chess players. This is a
very important event in the sport life of our country."
Next, Serzh Sargsyan thanked all those present for accepting his
invitation. Noting, that these meetings would be held regularly, the
President of Armenia said, "In my address to the National Assembly
and our people I had noted that I would initiate topical and regular
discussions on the vital, strategic issues, and that leaders of all
political parties would be invited to participate. This is the first
meeting in that format." The President of Armenia "expressed hope
that this mechanism will not only allow to increase participation of
the political parties in the decision-making processes but will also
contribute to the further expansion of the political field. Every
discussion in this format will be dedicated to one particular issue.
I would not exclude the possibility of having even outgoing meetings
which will be convened out of the capital, in the localities relevant
to the topic of the discussions. In my opinion, the importance of
such meetings is in being able to listen to each other, to comprehend
the variety of opinions and approaches, the ability to collectively
ponder on the problems facing our country and when possible to
develop a joint position on different issues. Today and from now
on our discussions will be conducted without reference, in a so
called "closed discussions" format. Such a format will allow all the
participants to take uninhibited part in the discussions and express
whatever opinion. As for the "without reference", it means that after
this meeting, during our public activities we can utilize opinions
voiced here, however, with the understanding that there will be no
direct references."
After the opening remarks of President Sargsyan a discussion unfolded
on the process of the peaceful resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict which lasted almost five hours.
