YEREVAN, MARCH 4, ARMENPRESS: Creation of Lithuania-NKR parliamentary
friendship group received vast feedback from Lithuanian press. It has
referred to the friendship group as well as to the protest action
conducted by Armenian community in Lithuania in front of Azerbaijani
Embassy on the occasion of 25th anniversary of Sumgait massacre.
As reports Armenpress, Baltic News Service (BNS), which is one of the
biggest news agencies in Baltic countries, has requested deputy Dalia
Kuodyte, organizer of `Lithuania and Armenia: a look to the recent
past' forum. Kuodyte highlighted the fact, that Foreign Minister of
NKR had been also invited to the forum as `the independence road of
Armenia started from movement for Karabakh'.
Deputy also added that Lithuania-NKR parliamentary friendship group
was created `for communicating and probably for establishing some
relations or may be for implementing some cultural projects'. Dalia
Kuodyte informed that at least 10 parliamentarians would partake in
the group.
The same agency also wrote that about 100 Armenians held protest
action in front of Azerbaijani Embassy in Lithuania. Protestors were
hanging Armenian national flag as well as different posters.
`Lithuanians were the first to start a democratic movement at time of
Soviet Union and this action is not only aimed to commemorate the
memory of Armenian victims but also to highlight that Armenia and
Lithuania were together 25 years ago and we want to be together now,'
one of protestors told BNS.
Largest web host of Lithuania and Estonia DELFI had a conversation
with Foreign Minister of NKR during which Karen Mirzoyan noted that 25
years ago Karabakh movement started peacefully, nevertheless,
`peaceful demands received not adequate response from the authorities
of Soviet Azerbaijan'. Minister has noted that after 25 years
Nagorno-Karabakh Republic presents as an accomplished state.
