Resolution on South Caucasus adopted by Bundestag relates to Nagorno Karabakh problem
On May 15 a resolution on the South Caucasus was adopted by the German Bundestag, which also touches upon the settlement of Nagorno Karabakh problem, Victor Engibaryan, head of the European movement in Armenia, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

"Necessity of withdrawal of troops from Nagorno Karabakh and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan are mentioned in the resolution. Actually, the resolution carries recommendation character, said Mr. Engibaryan.

According to him, Bundestag's resolution says that the conflict should be settled in the framework of documents adopted by UN, OSCE and the Council of Europe.

"It's worth mentioning that Bundestag's resolution suggests the government to assist to the settlement of Nagorno Karabakh conflict in the framework of EU with Russia, U.S. and Turkey as mediators. This is unacceptable. Germany is not a small country and this resolution can become a beginning in a chain of other similar resolutions," said Victor Engibaryan.

According to Mr. Engibaryan, one of the main reasons Bundestag adopted of such a document is the fact, that Armenia has not had an ambassador to Germany for the last several month.
