YEREVAN, January 23. /ARKA/. Armenia's representatives to the
Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) have called
on the world community to avoid double standards while treating the
Karabakh issue, the RA Parliament's Press Service reports.
The Armenian delegation made this statement during the discussion of
Lord Russell-Johnston's report on Kosovo's status.
Leader of the Heritage (Zharangutyun) Party Raffi Hovannisian did not
share the reporter's viewpoint that Kosovo can become a precedent for
the settlement of other conflicts. He believes the selective approach
and geopolitical situation cannot prevail over the international law,
self-determination and self-government.
The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic has all the necessary legal and
constitutional bases for existence, according to Hovannisian.
He called on to say "no" to double standards and say "yes" to the
key points of the report.
Chairman of Armenia's Parliamentary Standing Commission on European
Integration Avet Adonts believes political changes determined the
collapse of Yugolsavia and the Soviet Union. According to him,
conflicts should never be settled by means of double standards.
