ArmInfo. Today, RA Parliament continued discussing the draft decision "On settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh problem".
Twenty-four parliamentarians in all registered in discussions.
To note, the draft statement "On settlement of Nagorno-Karabakh problem" is as follows:
"Expressing its concern over the recent developments in respect of the settlement of the Karabakh problem;
considering that the Azeri high-ranking officials' anti-Armenian militant propaganda is dangerous and aims to break the peace process;
condemning the Azeri army's provocative actions on violating the cease-fire regime, particularly, invasion of the Azeri armed forces to the territory of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic on March 4;
taking into account Azerbaijan's open steps to torpedo the peace process, aspiration to gain military prevalence due to oil financial flows and settlement of the problem in the military way;
the blackmail with respect to the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, which is accompanied with threats to express distrust in them and pass the discussion of the conflict settlement to other organizations, which
is qualified as an open and amoral attempt of Azerbaijan to break the peace process;
considering that the fragmentary publication of settlement principles worked out within the frames of the Minsk Group as a possibility of various speculations is dangerous;
considering Karabakh people's right to self-determination to be incontestable and irreproachable from the viewpoint of international law, and the necessity of unconditional application of this principle
when settling the problem, the National Assembly of Armenia suggests that the President and the Government of the country to
- intensify and enlarge efforts to develop and implement measures aimed at informing the world community about the Nagorno-Karabakh problem
- enhance Armenia's initiative concerning the Nagorno-Karabakh problem
- formulate legal grounds for ensuring the security of Nagorno-Karabakh in case of military aggression by Azerbaijan.
Speaker of the NA Tigran Torossyan says that this statement is a response to the latest developments in the framework of the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process. It is for the Government and the President to solve this problem, so, the National Assembly considers it to be correct to ask them to search for solution. This is the position of all the MPs. As regards the possibility of recognition of Nagorno-Karabakh's independence by Armenia, Torossyan says that Armenia may take such a step if need be. Since the statement does not mention it, Torossyan supposes that it is not yet time for such an action.
