The European People’s Party (EPP) Women Executive Board session and a seminar on women in leadership positions were held in Prague, the capital city of the Czech Republic.

Chairperson of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia Women’s Council, National Assembly (NA) Vice President Hermine Naghdalyan, represented Armenia in these events.

At the session, Naghdalyan invited her European women political party colleagues on Azerbaijan’s large-scale military actions along its Line of Contact with Nagorno-Karabakh, in early April.

She provided the EPP member women information materials, photographs, and international press coverage attesting to the atrocities which the Azerbaijani soldiers committed during this aggression. 

The Armenian parliament deputy speaker noted that this aggression was accompanied by gross violations of human rights and international humanitarian law

Hermine Naghdalyan stressed that the calls for the establishment of peace cannot be effective unless they are addressed to Azerbaijan, the one that has provoked these military actions, and they express a clear assessment.

She added that Azerbaijan constantly violates the ceasefire agreement that has been reached, and expressed the hope that the women representatives of the leading European political parties will convey her concerns to their countries.

Also, vice president of the Armenian NA had separate talks with all EPP member countries’ women members of the European Parliament.
