December 3, 2012 - 21:06 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - The statement adopted at an Armenia-EU
interparliamentary cooperation sitting at Brussels stresses that there
is no alternative to peaceful settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict,
the committee chair Samvel Farmanyan said.
"Expressing concern at a lack of progress in conflict settlement talks,
the document emphasized a need to abandon the status quo in favor of
a safe future," Mr. Farmanyan said, noting the clause as important
in the light of Azerbaijan's intensified military rhetoric.
According to the document, the final status of Nagorno Karabakh must
be determined through free will of Artsakh citizens. The statement
also urges to pull snipers form the line of contact, as demanded by
OSCE Minsk Group and international organizations.
The document also stressed Armenia's support for a March 2011 statement
adopted by Armenian, Russian and Azerbaijani leaders, calling to form
a mechanism for investigation of incidents and ceasefire violations
at contact line.
