YEREVAN. - Secretary of the ruling Republican Party’s parliamentary group Eduard Sharmazanov welcomes European Parliament’s call to establish informal contacts with Nagorno-Karabakh.

Sharmazanov stressed that resolution is a result of work carried out by the Armenian diplomats with the European Parliament members, as well as result of MP’s visits to Nagorno-Karabakh.

The European Parliament adopted resolution on Thursday on the review of the European Neighbourhood Policy. In a resolution the parliamentarians call to develop more confidence-building measures and programs, including the launching of new missions and public communication strategies and the consideration of pragmatic initiatives and innovative approaches. European Parliament particularly mentions informal contacts and consultations with the societies and de facto authorities of the breakaway territories, while conserving the EU’s non-recognition policy, in order to support civic culture and community dialogue.
