President Serzh Sargsyan received Philippe Lefort, the European Union
Special Representative (EUSR) for the South Caucasus and the crisis
in Georgia.
During the meeting reference was made to the Armenia-EU relations and
the development of cooperation, the current state of settlement of
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, the situation created as a result of
the release of Azerbaijani murderer Ramil Safarov and the reaction
of the international community.
Serzh Sargsyan expressed gratitude for the statements of a number
of European countries and international organizations condemning
Azerbaijan's decision to release killer Safarov. At the same time,
the President said that some so-called "balanced" statements are
unacceptable, labeling them as an "inadequate" reaction to that
appalling dead. According to President Sargsyan, the glorification
of the murderer by the Azerbaijani authorities deserves unequivocal
condemnation by our EU partners.
The EU Special Representative noted that he's leaving for Baku
after the meeting with the Armenian President, where he will demand
explanations from the Azerbaijani authorities.
Philippe Lefort underlined that the European Union denounces such
a step that causes damage to the trust between the parties to the
Karabakh conflict and added that he supports the OSCE Minsk Group
efforts in the process of settlement of the Karabakh issue.
