"Armenia attaches importance to the encouragement of the rule of
law from the point of view of maintenance and reinforcement of
international peace and security and protection of human rights,
since their violation, particularly the violation of the people's
right to self-determination results in regional conflicts," Armenia's
Permanent Representative at the UN, Ambassador Karen Nazaryan said,
speaking at a discussion in the UN dedicated to the rule of law.
Karen Nazaryan noted that the maintenance of humanitarian law
is important both during conflicts and in post-conflict period,
and confirmed that special attention should be paid to issues of
protection of civilians.
Ambassador Nazarayn welcomed the fact that the UN Security Council
keeps in the focus the issues of putting an end to the impunity of
states, launching investigation against those who committed genocides
or crimes against humanity and bringing them to justice.
Ambassador Nazaryan called attention to the fact that the notion of
the rule of law denies any use of force, adding that the non-use of
force in post-conflict period is an important factor, contributing
to the reinforcement of trust between parties.
The Secretary General of the UN and representatives of more than 40
member countries delivered speeches.
