and useful character.
The RA NA President Tigran Torosyan informed the NKR NA President
about the debates at PACE summer session in Strasbourg, referring to
the debates on the issue of prevention of forest fires, which the
Azeris' delegation was trying to turn into regular speculation. He
talked about the upcoming visiting session of PACE Subcommittee

of Leo Platvoet, Rapporteur on Missing People in Armenia, Georgia,
Azerbaijan of PACE Committee on Migration, Refugees and Population.
