TIGRAN TOROSIAN IN DUBLIN DISCUSSING SOUTH CAUCASIAN PARLIAMENTARY
ASSEMBLY
YEREVAN, JULY 25, ARMENPRESS: Armenian deputy parliament chairman
Tigran Torosian will be discussing today with his Georgian and
Azerbaijani counterparts in Dublin, Ireland, the establishment of a
South Caucasian parliament.
Torosian was quoted by RFE/RL as saying that Armenian, Georgian
and Azerbaijani parliament officials had signed in Georgian capital
city Tbilisi in June a memorandum expressing their desire to
transform the so-called South Caucasian Parliamentary Initiative into
a Parliamentary Assembly.
"We need to take several actions and the Dublin meeting will be
dedicated to discussing these actions," he was quoted as saying. He
said the Armenian side has always been in support of expanding
cooperation with parliaments of Georgia and Azerbaijan, but added
that Azerbaijan insists on it after the Karabakh conflict is
resolved, contrary to a Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of
Europe last January resolution urging the three nations to improve
their relations.
