YEREVAN, APRIL 10, NOYAN TAPAN. On April 10, the RA National Assembly
started discussing the draft statement of NA on the settlement of
the Nagorno Karabakh problem. At that, in particular, RA NA proposes
the President and government activizing and expanding the efforts
and possibilities of working out and implementing measures aimed at
providing complete information to the international community on
the Nagorno Karabakh problem, formulating within the framework of
the international law the legal bases, which in case of a military
aggression or use of other forcible measures by Azerbaijan will give
RA a possibility to guarantee complete security and defence of NKR.
As the author of the draft, NA Speaker Tigran Torosian, said, the
processes of problem's settlement do not give an occasion for optimism,
Azerbaijan's bellicose statements and anti-Armenian propaganda become
deeper and deeper, which does not receive an adequate response at
international instances.
According to him, the growth of Azerbaijan's profits, first of all
thanks to oil financial flows, creates a false illusion that it
is possible to solve the problem through military operations, and
therefore, misleads its own people.
T. Torosian said that efforts should be strained for the
internationally recognized NKR to be involved in the negotiations
process as a conflict side. According to him, though Armenia can
recognize NKR at any moment, it will be much more efficient if it
concentrates its efforts on NKR's international recognition.
T. Torosian said that Nagorno Karabakh's National Assembly is aware
about his initiative, and that issue will be discussed in detail
during the sitting of the two countries' Interparliamentary Cooperation
Commission to be held next week in Stepanakert.
