inter-parliamentary cooperation and the activities of the friendship
groups.

as the government for showing valuable support to the process of the
Armenian Genocide recognition. He also expressed his gratitude to the
legislative body for recognition of the independence of the Nagorno

relations, the cooperation of the friendship groups and the mutual
visits was emphasized.
The guests noted that the Parliament of the New South Wales was the
first to recognize the Armenian Genocide and the right of the NKR
people's self-determination, but they will do their best to make
the parliaments of other states also adopt similar resolutions. The
State Parliament also applied to the central authorities, urging to
recognize the right of the NKR people's self-determination. The guests
highly appreciated the role of the Armenian community and the big
contribution in the political, economic and cultural life of Australia.
