18:24:27 - 04/12/200
The ARF Dashnaktsutyun Bureau held a plenary session in Beirut,
Lebanon, which lasted from November 29 to December 1. The session
dwelled on the new situation in the South Caucasus, the urgent moves
towards supporting the state, the offices of political affairs, the
issue of Artsakh, the state of the Armenian and Turkish relations,
the international recognition of the Armenian genocide.
It was noted that the final settlement of the issue of Artsakh is
possible through peace talks in which NKR will be a party.
Considering that the militaristic rhetoric of Azerbaijan continues
after signing the declaration of Moscow, it is highly important that
the issue remains on the national agenda as a problem relating to the
existence and security of Armenia and the Armenians. For us, the basis
of the talks should be the fact of self-determination of Artsakh which
took place on two occasions, the referendums on independence in 1991
and adoption of the NKR Constitution in 2006. Compromise can only
be equal, simultaneous and in the framework of a complete package
solution, the press release of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun holds.
Reasserting that as neighboring states Armenia and Turkey must continue
efforts to improve relations, it was underlined that Turkey has taken
no positive step yet. On the contrary, the existing contacts are used
to hinder the process of recognition of the genocide and to determine
the relations of the two states by the relations of Armenia with a
third state, Azerbaijan.
In this context, the determination of the top government of Armenia
was appreciated to have adopted the recognition of the Armenian
genocide, including by Turkey, as one of the strategic directions of
the foreign policy of Armenia. On the other hand, it was noted that
the current importance of improvement of relations between Armenia and
Turkey should not be set superior to the rights of the generations,
the press release holds.
The Bureau made decisions the starting point of which is the basic
principle that the primary goal of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun is the
independence and security of the Republic of Armenia.
