Minister Ruben Zargarian and Arsen Melik-Shakhnazarian. In his speech,
Mr. Zargarian made an analysis of the threats by Turkey and the
conflicts it is provoking towards the region's states, as well as
the territorial claims of Azerbaijan against all its neighbors and
official Baku's denial of the norms of international law. The speaker

of peace and stability in the region of the Eastern Mediterranean,

settlement of the Azerbaijani-Karabakh conflict, which was actively
supported by all the participants of the round table.

Embassy to deny the existence of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic were
exposed by many participants of the forum who emphasized in their
speeches that six international entities existed in the South Caucasus
and the NKR was one of the most established and stable states in the
region, NKR MFA press service reported.
