CITY BUILDING IN ARMENIAN LIBERATED TERRITORIES WILL ENABLE MORE CIVILIZED TALKS WITH AZERBAIJAN
February 25, 2014 | 15:33
YEREVAN. - The construction of a city for Azerbaijani Armenians in the
liberated territories will not be a violation of international law,
or territorial integrity; this is just a protection of international
law because, with this step, Armenia will lift the blockade imposed
upon it.
Aratta Youth Club Media Relations Department Head, political scientist
Hovik Veranyan stated the aforesaid at a roundtable discussion
on Tuesday.
"As is well known, blockade is a military action in international law.
Being a CSTO member and having separate agreements with Russia, we
[i.e., Armenia] need to call upon our military allies to contribute
to the lifting of Armenia's blockade," Veranyan stressed.
In his view, the building of a city in the liberated territories will
enable to hold talks with Azerbaijan at a more civilized level.
"When they do not speak with that state in its own words, it starts
speaking in the language of cynicism. If the specified project is
implemented, Azerbaijan will come to understand that it is impossible
to defeat Armenia with ease," Hovik Veranyan noted.
For his part, Aratta Youth Club member Hovhannes Basentsyan stressed
the importance of education, and added that the future city will
become a major educational center for the region and the world, alike.
