HEAD OF ARMENIAN DELEGATION TO NATO PA MHER SHAHGELDYAN COMMENTS ON
NONPARTICIPATION OF ARMENIA IN ROSE-ROTH SEMINAR
YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 30. ARMINFO. The response of NATO PA to the letter
of Armenian Parliamentary Speaker on the necessity of security
provision to Armenian MPs at NATO seminar Rose-Roth in Baku was
received a little later. As a result, the Armenian delegation had no
time to attend the event. Head of the Armenian Parliamentary
Commission for Defense, National Security and Internal Affairs, Head
of Armenian delegation to NATO PA Mher Shahgeldyan told ARMINFO,
Tuesday.
He said that the Armenian delegation could not leave for Baku without
guarantees of NATO PA and Azerbaijani Parliament in the light of the
recent events when Armenian officers were not allowed to NATO military
exercises in BAKU, as well as the incident with expulsion of a
Bulgarian journalist Armenian by origin from Baku, and the statement
by Azerbaijani Parliamentary Speaker that participation of Armenians
in the seminar Rose-Roth would not be desirable. Meanwhile, the
Azerbaijani Parliamentary Speaker even did not respond to the above
letter of his Armenian counterpart.
It should be noted NATO PA Secretary General Simon Lann stated that
the Armenian MPs were provided with security guarantees for their
participation in Rose Roth seminar in Baku. He said that
representatives of the Armenian delegation called up from Moscow a day
before the seminar and informed that it will not participate in the
event.
