Azerbaijan is responsible for impeding the Karabakh peace process,
Armen Rustamyan, ARFD parliamentarian, said in the parliament on
Monday.
Rustamyan said that over the last three session of the parliament ARFD
had been trying to organize discussion on the draft decision condemning
Azerbaijan's stance on the Karabakh conflict. "The statement is a
political necessity, for Azerbaijan organizes large-scale anti-Armenian
propaganda and distorts the essence of the Karabakh conflict. Mexico
recognized the incidents on Khojalu as "genocide committed by
Armenians," while we do nothing to put an end to that policy," he said.
For his part, Parliament Speaker Samvel Nikoyan said: "I welcome the
provisions in the text of the given statement and I am sure all the
members of the parliament agree with them. We can use it as a useful
foreign political instrument. But, I think it should be adopted in more
convenient time. It is not the very moment for that." Nikoyan suggested
operating in cooperation with the foreign political department and
taking more efficient steps in this given direction.
The draft decision "On Azerbaijan's responsibility for transformation
of the Karabakh problem into an armed conflict, distortion of its
essence and impeding the peaceful negotiations" provides for declaring
official Baku responsible for aggressive statements, anti-Armenian
calls and actions, refusal from the crimes committed. This is what
impedes the negotiation process, the draft decision reads.
