HEARINGS ON KARABAKH IN SUCH CALM ATMOSPHERE IN BAKU WOULD BE
IMPOSSIBLE: VICE SPEAKER OF ARMENIAN NA
YEREVAN, MARCH 30. ARMINFO. It is such parliamentary hearings that
makes Armenia different from Azerbaijan as these hearings in such a
calm atmosphere in Baku would be impossible, says Vice Speaker of the
Armenian National Assembly, the member of ARFD Bureau, Head of the
Armenian parliamentary delegation to OSCE PA Vahan Hovhannissyan
today.
He says that the atmosphere around settlement of the conflict is
changing and the issue, due to Azerbaijan's efforts, is submitted to
international parliamentary structures, which are not ready to discuss
it and give priority to the principle of territorial integrity and
settlement of the conflict's consequences and not the reasons. Such an
approach of these structures is mainly accounted for by the passivity
of the Armenian parliamentary diplomacy, the vice speaker adds. At the
same time, he says that discussion of the issue at international
parliamentary instances may bring benefit as new arenas originate for
presentation of the real essence of the conflict. He says that at
present there are three formulas of settling the conflict - war,
establishment of any relations exclusively after the conflict's
resolution, and Azeraijan supports these two positions, and the third
one supported by Armenia is settlement of the conflict through
establishment of relations. At present, the position of the
international community coincides with that of Armenia and it
favorably distinguishes Armenia from Azerbaijan.
Hovhannissyan says that a plan of actions on participation in the EU
program of New Neighborhood will be presented to the three Caucasian
states within the nearest future. Due to the program's implementation
all the problems will be solved and Armenia will integrate into the
single European economic cooperation. But is it possible only in case
of regional cooperation, and Azerbaijan is afraid of it. And it
explains the recent frequent militarist statements of Azerbaijan and
violations of the cease-fire regime, the vice speaker says. At the
same time, he thinks necessary structural reforms both in Armenia and
Karabakh, which is a pledge of security.
