At the current stage of the Karabakh peace process the priority is to
involve Stepanakert in the peace process. It is for this reason that
the Parliaments of Armenia and Artsakh have addressed a joint
statement to the OSCE Minsk Group, Karine Achemyan, MP from the
Republican Party of Armenia, member of the Interparliamentary
Committee of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia and the
National Assembly of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic, told ArmInfo.
In the meantime, the MP thinks that undoubtedly Azerbaijan will
"hysterically" respond to that statement. Nevertheless, it does not
mean that Armenia should not raise this issue, she said. "Everyone
should realize that it is impossible to resolve the Karabakh problem
without involving Stepanakert in the negotiations", she said. For his
part, Hamlet Harutyunyan, another member of the Interparliamentary
Committee, member of the Republican Party of Armenia, expressed hope
that the OSCE Minsk Group will positively assess the statement of the
two Armenian republics and will take relevant measures to carry out
the statement.
To recall, the Interparliamentary Committee of the National Assembly
of the Republic of Armenia and the National Assembly of the Nagorno
Karabakh Republic made a joint statement on 26 June. The Committee
urged the Minsk Group Co-Chairs to take all necessary steps to ensure
the full-fledged participation of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic in all
the stages of the negotiating process.
The statement runs as follows: "Highlighting the full and flawless
compliance of the declaration and the process of formation of the
Nagorno Karabakh Republic with the fundamental principles and norms of
the international law and the USSR legislation, which was yet in force
at that time, as well as the reality that the Republic of Armenia is
the guarantor of the realization of the right to self-determination of
the Karabakh people.
We apply to the Minsk Group Co-Chairs to take necessary steps to
ensure the full-fledged participation of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic
in all the stages of the negotiating process."
The Committee calls on the OSCE MG co-chair states to take effective
steps for withdrawal of snipers, creation of the machinery for
investigation of incidents and ruling out statements and actions that
embark hatred.
