Resolution on South Caucasus adopted: Armenian foreign ministry hysterically reacts

The points in the Europarliament's resolution on the South Caucasus regarding Karabakh contains are inconsonant with either the Madrid principles or the statement by presidents of OSCE MG co-chairing countries made in Aquila, as well as the Moscow declaration, Foreign Minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandian said when commenting on the resolution passed by the Europarliament on May 20.

On May 20, the European Parliament adopted a resolution based on the report by Bulgarian parliamentarian Yevgeniy Kirillov "On the necessity of developing EU strategy in the South Caucasus". It says, in particular, that the occupied Azerbaijani regions around Nagorno-Karabakh must be cleared as soon as possible.

According to Nalbandyan, there is an evident mess in the report concerning formulations, one of the reasons of which is the fact that the reporter has never been in Nagorno-Karabakh and in the region. He did not even have consultation with representative of France being EU member and one of OSCE MG cochairmen, when preparing the report.

Recently the international community, various international organizations, individual countries increasingly recognize the fact of occupation of Azerbaijani territories.

Commenting on a  European Parliament resolution, Armenian Foreign Minister could do nothing better but to blame MEPs for all the wrongs without substantiating his stance.
