The fact that Azerbaijan withdrew its resolution from the agenda of the 64th session of the U.S. General Assembly can only be welcomed. However, the Armenian side should not stop at what has been accomplished, the ARF member Lilit Galstyan told NEWS.am.

“The positive aspect of the events is that Azerbaijan’s initiatives awake the Armenian foreign office and take actions. However, we should not stop at what has been accomplished, being happy about the fact that discussion was prevented at this session. We must be active not only when Azerbaijan undertakes initiatives, but also permanently in order to prevent its initiatives,” Galstyan said. She stressed the necessity for Yerevan to undertake initiatives itself instead of only responding to Azerbaijan’s steps at international institutions.

On September 9, Azerbaijan withdrew its resolution on occupied territories from the agenda of the 64th session of the U.N. General Assembly.
