ArmInfo. Nagorno-Karabakh MPs met French parliamentarian, Head of
the France-Armenia Friendship Group Mr Francois Rochebloine and
Secretary of the Friendship Group Mr. Jean-Pierre Delannoy at the
Nagorno-Karabakh National Assembly, Monday.
As ArmInfo own correspondent in Stepanakert reports, Speaker of the
NKR Parliament Ashot Gulyan highly assessed Francois Rochebloine's
visit to Karabakh and pointed out that the latter supported Karabakh
people's fight for freedom and independence. The Speaker said that
the French diplomat, who is visiting the NKR for the third time,
is well aware of the processes in the region and Nagorno-Karabakh
itself. For his part, Francois Rochebloine expressed his content with
the changes in Karabakh and pointed out that these changes demonstrate
the recent development in various spheres in Karabakh.
Francois Rochebloine stressed that he supports Hay Dat and Karabakh
people's fight for their freedom. He said one shouldn't cast
doubt on Karabakh people's right to self- determination and added
that he will contribute to gaining of the NKR people's right to
self-determination. At the same time, he pointed out that there are no
people without a territory. According to him, during the Soviet time
a number of controversial laws were adopted, particularly, Karabakh
was unlawfully joined to Azerbaijan. He added that the international
community should be provided true information about Karabakh. According
to the French MP, one shouldn't trust a state (Azerbaijan is meant -
editor), which alongside with negotiations, comes out with militarist
statements and threats, and one shouldn't trust the president who
feels hatred for Armenians. It is necessary to ensure security of
Karabakh territory and people, as well as respect for the political
and cultural identity of Karabakh people at the international level.
Furthermore, he stressed the significance of support to the economic
and social development of Karabakh by means of private investments. He
expressed hope that in the near future the Karabakh conflict will
be settled. Francois Rochebloine handed a commemorative medal of the
French parliament to Ashot Gulyan. For his part, Ashot Gulyan handed
a commemorative medal issued on the occasion of the 20th anniversary
of Karabakh national liberation movement to the French parliamentarian.
During a separate meting with the French MP, Ashot Gulyan pointed out
that the NKR legislation has been brought in compliance with European
standards. On June 8 and 9 Francois Rochebloine will visit the NKR
regions and meet the population.
