    T. TOROSIAN: ONLY OSCE MG TO BE ENGAGED IN NK SETTLEMENT

    Noyan Tapan News Agency, Armenia
    Oct 11 2005

    YEREVAN, OCTOBER 11, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The autumn session
    of PACE was held on October 3-7 in Strasbourg. It was the first time
    since 2004 January that no issue immediately concerning Armenia was
    on the agenda of the session. Tigran Torosian, head of the Armenian
    delegation in the Assembly, RA NA Vice-Speaker, reported this at the
    October 11 press conference.

    According to speaker's prognostication, such issues will emerge in
    2006. In particular, the report of the commission on Nagorno Karabakh
    issue created within the framework of the Assembly will be heard at
    the January session.

    Three meetings were held with participation of the Armenian party
    on the days of the session. In particular, the Armenian delegation
    in PACE met with Roland Wegener, head of the Ago Group. The subject
    was the process of constitutional amendments in Armenia. According to
    T.Torosian, Wegener expressed hope in connection with the successful
    process of referendum on constitutional amendments and regret in
    connection with the repulsive position of the opposition in this issue.

    The third meeting was held on the initiative of Rene van der Linden,
    PACE Chairman, with participation of heads of Armenian, Georgian and
    Azerbaijani delegations. The high-ranking official asked about the
    process of constitutional amendments in Armenia and also expressed
    his assistance.

    The third meeting was held within the framework of Assembly's ad hoc
    commission on Nagorno Karabakh issue with participation of Russel
    Jonston, commission's Chairman, and Armenian and Azeri delegates
    included in the commission. The subject of the discussion was the
    future fate of the commission. T.Torosian didn't exclude that the
    commission will be given additional authorities in the future for the
    fulfilment of the clauses of the resolution on NKR conflict adopted
    at the PACE 2005 January session. At the same time, he once more
    reaffirmed that the processes of Nagorno Karabakh settlement will
    develop within the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group and PACE will
    provide the necessary atmosphere within the framework of its mandate
    in order to make the future solutions admissible.
