YEREVAN, 21.10.08. DE FACTO. Europeans are quite superficially informed
of Nagorno-Karabakh and a conflict with Azerbaijan, David Babayan,
the head of the Central Department of Information of the Office of
NKR President, told a DE FACTO correspondent.
As it has already been reported, the Karabakh delegation headed by
David Babayan, the head of the Central Department of Information of
the Office of NKR President, and Eduard Atanesian, NKR Deputy FM,
participated in the Round table within the frames of the conference
held in Brussels initiated by AGBU European department. It should
be noted that it was the NKR officials' first invitation to the
international forums for the last 10 years. The discussions were
devoted to the situation in the Nagorno-Karabakh in the context of
the European Union's policy in the South Caucasus region.
According to David Babayan, the dialogue with Karabakh representatives
has been established, and the visit's principal goal - to familiarize
the European structures with NKR's stand - has been achieved.
Unfortunately, David Babayan stated that, though Caucasus was a
region Europe was interested in, the interest was shown only from
the viewpoint of integration.
In the course of the visit to Belgium Nagorno-Karabakh's delegates met
with the deputies of the European Parliament and the representatives
of Brussels' Armenian organizations.
