Komorowski, Sargsyan discuss Nagorno Karabakh, Eastern Partnership
Warsaw, July 28
Polish and Armenian Presidents, Bronislaw Komorowski and Serzh
Sargsyan, met in Yerevan on Wednesday to discuss the problem of
Nagorno Karabakh and the Eastern Partnership programme.
President Sargsyan is of the opinion that the Nagorno Karabakh should
be given security guarantees. According to President Komorowski,
Western involvement in solving the problem of the disputed areas
should be linked with the extinguishing of the conflict.
"Poland is in favour of resolving ethnic and border issues with the
observation of two principles: the principle of territorial integrity,
inviolability of borders and the principle of self-determination of
nations," Komorowski stressed at a joint press conference with
Sargsyan when asked about EU support for reforms in the
Nagorno-Karabakh.
Komorowski also said that Poland "wishes the best for Armenia on her
road to European integration." "This is the most important match that
Armenia can play," he stressed.
The Polish president added that he counts on Armenia's active
participation in the Eastern Partnership Summit in late September in
Warsaw. "Eastern Partnership offers many opportunities of which I
would like to emphasize one: the possibility of education and training
of clerical staff," said Komorowski.
He pointed out that under the Eastern Partnership, an individual
country may propose specific projects. "The Partnership has funds for
the implementation of programs and projects that cover aid in carrying
out appropriate reforms in countries participating in this program,"
said Komorowski.
"The (Warsaw) Eastern Partnership summit will be a good time to
evaluate the project's achievements and to assess the scope of used up
possibilities and progress of individual countries," said Komorowski.
He added that it will also be an opportunity to underline the Polish
position that "accepting new challenges, the EU should remember old
commitments and strategic objectives, which include the neighbourhood
in the east," said the president.
