Republic PÅ~Yemysl Sobotka. The meeting was attended by Armenia's

that Mr. Sobotka again visited Armenia as it was agreed in April,

interparliamentary ties.

European integration.
PÅ~Yemysl Sobotka attached importance to the parliamentary cooperation
on the level of commissions and assured that the establishment of
permanent working ties will contribute to the realization of certain
programs. He noted that the meeting of the Presidents of Parliament
of EU member state sin expected in Prague in September, during which
he will inform his counterparts that Armenia is a reliable partner
for the European Union.
Turning to the conflict in Georgia, Tigran Torosyan noted that
Armenia's position on the issue is distinct: such questions should
be solved via peace talks, war is not a way of solving problems in
the 21st century. Respecting the principle of immunity of borders as
one of the important provisions20of the Helsinki Final Act, Armenia
considers that the other principle of the Helsinki Final Act -
the right of peoples for self-determination - should be equally
respected. Tigran Torosyan expressed hope that all the problems in
the region will be solved peacefully via negotiations, excluding the
military intervention.
