ArmInfo. Armenian President's decision not to participate in NATO
Summit Meeting in Lisbon over the inadmissible language of the draft
declaration to be adopted during the event was tough but correct, a
member of the Republican Party of Armenia Gagik Melikyan told
journalists today.
"I suppose that the provision on territorial integrity was introduced
in the draft declaration by Georgia's rather than Azerbaijan's
request, Gagik Melikyan said and added: "However, this provision could
be used against us in future."
"Armenia has numerously stated that the conflicts in the South
Caucasus are different, what makes adoption of common solutions to
them impossible. Karabakh has never been and will never be a part of
independent Azerbaijan," Melikyan stated.
He also added that the president's such decision must not be
considered a diplomatic defeat for Armenia. It cannot be compared with
the Lisbon summit of the OSCE 1996.
