The resumption of activities of the subcommittee on Nagorno-Karabakh at the CE Parliamentary Assembly (PACE) was undesired, but expected, MP from Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) Vardan Bostanjyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
The MP stressed the re-establishment of the subcommittee is a violation of a number of international treaties and agreements, OSCE Minsk Group exists which paves the way for controversial issues.
“The involvement of other agencies will play a disorientating role. Consequently, I oppose this structure,” Bostanjyan said.
As Armenian Nrews-NEWS.am reported earlier, the subcommittee on Nagorno-Karabakh has resumed its activities at the CE Parliamentary Assembly (PACE) on January 28, 2010. Head of the Armenian delegation David Harutyunyan made a speech and offered convincing arguments that such a committee will affect the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process. Unfortunately, the Armenian delegation was the only one to vote against such a committee.
Jordi Xuclà i Costa was elected on Thursday new chairman of PACE sub-committee on Karabakh during meeting of the PACE bureau.
