KARABAKH CONFLICT IGNORED BECAUSE THERE IS NO OIL - VALERIE BOYER
July 11, 2013 | 18:03
French MP and author of the Armenian Genocide bill Valerie Boyer said
the Karabakh conflict must not be ignored and must be taken out of
the state of pressure.
In an interview with Azad Or newspaper, Boyer said "a bridge of
communication" must be built between Yerevan and Stepanakert for the
region to get of an isolated state.
"Armenia and Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] should withdraw their
political, diplomatic and human isolation," she said, adding that
first of all it is necessary to start from drawing international
public opinion in favor of Karabakh recognition.
Unfortunately, almost 99% of the French and Europeans are unaware and
unconcerned about the Artsakh issue. The MP considers it is explained
by the fact that Karabakh has no oil.
Valerie Boyer is confident that the bill criminalizing Armenian
Genocide denial and Karabakh recognition process are interrelated.
"It is necessary to continue the efforts urging the United States to
acknowledge the Armenian Genocide. This will help Artsakh recognition,"
she noted.
