ArmInfo. On April 2, NATO Secretary General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer
engaged in an open debate in Strasbourg with young people from almost
60 nations about "NATO in 2020: What Lies head", APA correspondent
reports from Strasbourg. Following his report, the NATO Secretary
General answered the questions of the students, including what
the Armenian student asked about the Armenia's integration to NATO,
solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict and opening of Turkish-Armenian
borders. Jaap de Hoop Scheffer highly appreciated NATO-Armenian
relationship.
"We are working together with Armenia within the Partnership for Peace
Program. Regarding the solution to Nagorno Karabakh conflict, I don't
think that NATO has a decisive role in this issue. Our organization
is not been involved in this issue. The Nagorno Karabakh conflict
is solved within the OSCE Minsk Group. I also took interest in the
solution of this problem while working as foreign minister and OSCE
chairman-in- office".
The Secretary General said recently there was progress in the issue
of opening the Turkish-Armenian borders and he hoped that the two
countries could improve their relations.
