At October 22 press conference the NA Vice President Eduard
Sharmazanov summed up the results of the conference held within the
IPA CIS framework in Saint Petersburg. The conference, where Eduard
Sharmazanov has delivered a speech, has referred to the prevention
of violations of laws in terms of honouring of human rights and the
struggle against crimes in ciber territory.
The NA Vice President has noted that in his speech touching upon the
necessity of intensive struggle against racism and xenophobia, has
recorded that there is a country Azerbaijan on the CIS territory,
where the phenomena of racism are encouraged. In that country the
military rhetoric is of more frequent nature, whereas Armenia prepares
its society for peace. In this context he has quoted the RA President
Serzh Sargsyan's words on the occasion of the 21st anniversary of
Armenia's independence. "We should not make turbid the people's
thought and spirit with all-human ideas and null and should not make
the young people zombies. The moral and spiritual decent picture of
the children growing up in Armenia is extremely dear to me".
Unlike this view Eduard Sharmazanov has reminded the words of the
speech made in the government by the President of Azerbaijan in spring
of this year that their main enemy is the Armenians spread worldwide.
The NA Vice President also said that the Azerbaijani mass media
and the network are filled with such anti-human statements and
anti-Armenian campaign.
The NA Vice President reminded the representatives of the CIS member
countries the fact of extradition of the Azerbaijani officer Ramil
Safarov, who had killed with an axe the Armenian officer Gurgen
Margaryan, who was taking part in NATO joint teaching courses in
Budapest, while sleeping, and had been sentenced to life imprisonment
and granting him pardon by Azerbaijan, characterizing it as the most
vivid example of xenophobia.
"It is not accidental that numerous countries and international
influential organizations, including the CSTO General Secretary and
the RF MFA official representative, have announced that granting
pardon Safarov contradicts the norms of international law and
promotes the growth of destabilization and tension in the region",
Eduard Sharmazanov said.
In his speech the NA Vice President once again has ensured that
Armenia has chosen the democracy and tolerance, but not the swamp
of xenophobia.
Eduard Sharmazanov also said that his speech made with mentioning
facts had been perceived by everybody except the representatives
of Azerbaijan, who had tried to load the events of Khojalu on the
Armenians. In response to that the NA Vice President reminded the
words of the ex-President of Azerbaijan spreading light on the events,
noticing that the shooting of Khojalu residents had been the work of
the Azerbaijani "National Front" representatives, and the provocation
had been organized with political considerations.
On the next day of the conference Eduard Sharmazanov had met in
St Petersburg with the General Secretary of the Inter-Parliamentary
Assembly of the CIS Alexey Sergeyev. The sides have exchanged thoughts
on the further deepening of the CIS integration processes and possible
regional developments. The NA Vice President has noted Armenia is
concerned with deepening of the CIS integration processes and is
actively involved in it. In his word, one of the vivid evidence of
it is the ratification of the treaty on creation of free trade area
in the CIS.
Touching upon the current phase of the NK conflict settlement in the
context of regional stability and security Eduard Sharmazanov has
underlined that the military solution of the problem and destructive
stance of Azerbaijan are inadmissible. He has added that international
community should not tolerate any provocation from Azerbaijan.
The NA Vice President reaffirmed the RA official view that the NK
conflict should be settled within the OSCE Minsk Group framework as
a result of peaceful negotiations based on three well-known principles.
In his turn Alexey Sergeyev has hailed the RA NA deputies' active
work in the IPA CIS, expressing hope that effective cooperation will
continue in future, too.
Touching upon the NK conflict settlement the IPA CIS General Secretary
has underscored that Russia, as OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chair country,
is exclusively for the peaceful solution of the problem.
In the course of the meeting the sides also touched upon the upcoming
presidential elections in Armenia. Alexey Sergeyev has said that the
IPA CIS is also ready to be an observer in these elections.
Eduard Sharmazanov ensured the IPA CIS General Secretary on readiness
and resoluteness of the Armenian authorities to hold democratic,
fair and transparent elections
