Yerevan/Mediamax/. Head of the "Dashnaktsutyun" parliamentary
faction Vahan Hovhannisyan said today that "our diplomacy can resist
Azerbaijani initiatives in the UN but it should get out of the
paralyzed state and start taking active measures to this end".
He noted that "Armenia should have actively protected its candidacy in
the competition for a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council",
Mediamax reports.
"At first, the competition was between Slovenia and Azerbaijan. I
am sure if Armenia were among the candidates it would have got a
considerable percent of votes. We would have had quite a different
picture: the UN members would support Slovenia rather than one of the
countries having problems with each other", said Vahan Hovhannisyan.
According to him, Armenian authorities try to prove that Azerbaijan's
election as a non-permanent member of UN Security Council can't cause
any trouble and there are no reasons to worry. "Unfortunately, soon
we will enjoy the bitter fruits", added the MP.
