The Armenian community of The Hague on Monday met with the
Netherlands' Christian Union (SU) party MP Esmé Wiegman, who visited
Armenia and Karabakh along the lines of the party's `Come and Help'
program.
Armenia's Ambassador to the Netherlands, Dzyunik Aghajanyan, thanked
Wiegman for visiting Armenia and carrying out a beneficial activity,
and she expressed a hope that such visits would contribute to
expanding Armenian-Dutch ties.
Afterward, and with the help of photographs, the Dutch MP shared her
impressions of her visit to Armenia and Karabakh.
And in response to the question as to whether she was subjected to
Azerbaijani pressures and included in Azerbaijan's `black list' for
visiting Karabakh, Esmé Wiegman said she is adamant in that regard and
not accountable to anyone. She informed that her websites received
numerous hate mails from Turks and Azerbaijanis. `I do not understand
why they have so much hatred,' she said and added: `I am the mother of
many children. I am raising my three boys. I definitely will encourage
them to visit Armenia.'
