CE Parliamentary Assembly Chairman Rene van der Linden sees no progress in Karabakh conflict settlement.
YEREVAN, July 5. /ARKA/. CE Parliamentary Assembly Chairman Rene van der Linden sees no progress in Karabakh conflict settlement.

He said Wednesday as met Armenian National Assembly Speaker Tigran Torosyan in Yerevan that efforts are needed to form public opinion for the problem settlement through negotiations, Armenian National Assembly press office reports.

Torosyan, in his turn, said that nobody in Armenia or Karabakh tries to stir up hatred against other nation and nobody runs military propaganda in Armenia or Karabakh, while Azerbaijan is doing polar opposite things.

As an example of that, Torosyan pointed out Azerbaijan’s reaction to Azerbaijani and Armenian intellectuals’ tour to Yerevan, Stepanakert and Baku.

He said this initiative was taken properly in Armenia and Karabakh, while in Azerbaijan this visit prompted widespread criticism and protests.

Torosyan said that such a conduct contradicts PACE Resolution N1416 containing war and hatred propaganda condemnation.

The speaker urged international organizations to display impartiality in gauging public opinion in countries. M.V.-0---
