Tigran Torosian expressed satisfaction that Leo Platvoet agreed to
meet with the head of the NKR Committee and one of the NGOs engaged

the approach of not politicizing the issue of missing people during
the regional visit. He expressed readiness to assist all the efforts
of the report aimed at the solution of this important, humane issue.
In connection with Tigran Torosian's proposal made in Yerevan about
visiting NKR Leo Platvoet said that in his opinion, it will be useful
to visit Nagorno Karabakh and Abkhazia and he decided to present
his report on the visit during the sitting of the PACE Committee on
Refugees, Migration and Demography, proposing that the Committee give
consent to the idea of visiting Nagorno Karabakh and Abkhazia. As
Noyan Tapan was informed from RA NA Public Relations Department,
this proposal was adopted at the Committee sitting later.
Leo Platvoet proposed giving the lists of missing Armenians so that
an attempt can be made to organize searches in Azerbaijan to find
those who are maybe still alive. Platvoet was proposed creating a
working group with participation of all sides, under the aegis of
the Red Cross, for the purpose of assisting the searches of missing
people. The proposal was accepted.
