YEREVAN.- Armenia-France parliamentary friendship group discussed key political issues concerning Azerbaijan’s militarist policy during the roundtable discussion “Karabakh: Peace and Dialogue” held in France on November 29.
Talking to reporters on Wednesday, MP from Republican Party of Armenia Ara Babloyan told about the discussions.
He said the discussion with the participation of the head of Azerbaijan-France friendship group was held after the screening of Tsvetana Paskaleva’s film about Karabakh.
“Former OSCE Minsk Group co-chair Bernard Fassier, present during the discussion, said there is no alternative to peaceful resolution of the conflict,” Babloyan noted.
Another representative of Armenia-France friendship group Margarit Yesayan said that during the meetings with French Senators, she and Prosperous Armenia member Naira Zohrabyan called for unbiased position on Karabakh. Besides, they drew attention to policy of anti-Armenian rhetoric and hatred carried out by Azerbaijan.
In his turn, delegate Mher Shahgeldyan noted anti-Armenian rhetoric has intensified under the rule of Ilham Aliyev.
“Previously petrodollars were allocated to increase military spending, now they find addressees among European senators and lobbyists protecting Azerbaijan’s interests on Karabakh,” he concluded.
