Armenia's participation in the NATO summit was justified: the
Turkish-Azeri plans to exert pressure on Armenia have failed, Vice
Speaker of the Armenian Parliament, Spokesman of the Republican Party
of Armenia Eduard Sharamzanov told journalists on Saturday.
He said that it was due to the Armenian President's participation that
for the first time ever NATO's resolution on Nagorno-Karabakh refers
to all the three basic Helsinki principles, including the right of a
nation to self-determination (all previous NATO resolutions mentioned
only Azerbaijan's territorial integrity - edit.). "The resolution also
says that the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict must be settled peacefully in
the framework of the OSCE Minsk Group, which also serves our
interests," Sharmazanov said.
One more positive thing, according to Sharmazanov, is that the summit
pointed out that Azerbaijan is ruled by an authoritarian regime.
"So, we can say that Serzh Sargsyan's participation in the summit has
ruined the Azeri-Turkish plans to exert pressure on Armenia,"
Sharmazanov said.
To note, all previous NATO resolutions qualified Armenia as an
occupant and prioritized Azerbaijan's territorial integrity. The last
resolution has broken this bad tradition and reflects the position of
the Armenian side.
