The [opposition] Justice bloc considers that in the current situation
in the Karabakh issue, which is unfavourable for Armenia, the
president should not miss an opportunity to speak from the rostrum of
the UN General Assembly.
At a 30 September briefing, Grigor Arutyunyan, a member of the Justice
bloc, said that it was clearly obvious from the reports by the
[former] rapporteur [of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of
Europe] on the Karabakh issue, Terry Davis, the US co-chairman of the
OSCE Minsk Group, Steven Mann, and other high-ranking officials as
well as articles published in the western media that the position of
the international community on the Karabakh issue is obviously in
favour of Azerbaijan's territorial integrity.
Given this, he said, [Armenian President] Robert Kocharyan is obliged
to personally answer to anti-Armenian attacks of Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliyev made from the highest rostrums, and not give the tasks of
this kind to Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan.
The opposition calls on Robert Kocharyan "to engage in political
activities earnestly instead of studying the Chinese Wall".
Vardan Oskanyan flew to New York to attend the 59th session of the UN
General Assembly. In turn, Armenian President Robert Kocharyan was
paying a state visit to China at that moment.
