YEREVAN. - A discussion, entitled "Women, Peace, and Security,"
was held at the UN Security Council on Thursday.
Armenia's Ambassador to UN, Karen Nazaryan, also attended the event,
and, in his address, he reflected on violation against women and
girls during conflicts, MFA informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.
Nazaryan specifically noted: "In several days we will commemorate the
innocent victims of Sumgait [in Azerbaijan], who were subjected to
slaughter and terrible violations simply because they were Armenian."
And alluding to the Azerbaijani representative's address, Armenia's
ambassador recalled that the day's discussion was solely about the
violations and crimes committed during the conflicts that are included
on the Security Council (SC) agenda, and therefore he deemed absurd
the Azerbaijani representative's hint made toward the incidents that
occurred in Khojalu. Nazaryan noted that even after being elected to
the SC, Azerbaijan continues with its irresponsible modus operandi,
to conceal its own crimes and provocations.
Armenia's ambassador to UN also called upon Azerbaijan to refrain
from cheap steps and, instead, to focus on the Karabakh peace talks
and to materialize those arrangements reached during the meetings
among the presidents of Armenia, Russia, and Azerbaijan.
Ambassador Karen Nazaryan also remarked that Azerbaijan continues
to violate UN SC resolutions, which call upon the parties to hold
negotiations within the OSCE Minsk Group format, and he added that
Azerbaijan's refusal to conduct talks with the elected leadership of
the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic is one of the main obstacles standing
in the way of regulating the issue.
