NATO PA SPRING SESSION AGENDA DOES INCLUDE KARABAKH PROBLEM
The spring session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, in which
Armenian MPs will also take part, will be held in Ljubljana, Slovenia, May
27-31, Yerkir newspaper reported. Azerbaijani Milli Mejlis Vice-Speaker,
head of the NATO PA parliamentary delegation Ziyafet Askerov stated that
the Assembly has to display its attitude towards the Nagorno Karabakh
problem, thus Azerbaijan will raise the NK issue at the session. When
commenting on these statements, head of the NATO PA Armenian delegation
Mher Shahgeldian noted that the session agenda does not provide for
discussion of the Nagorno Karabakh problem. Nevertheless, in case the issue
is raised, the Armenian party will present grounded arguments, the head of
the Armenian delegation assured.
