“ARMENIA SHOULD RECOGNISE KARABAKH’S INDEPENDENCE”
Support A1+!During an upcoming summit of the European Union scheduled for September 1 the heads of 27 European countries will discuss the Russian-Georgian conflict.
Chairman of the “European Movement of Armenia” (EMA) NGO Victor Engibaryan says Armenia should seize the opportunity and put the issue of the Karabakh conflict on the agenda.
“If Armenia is unable to call Europe’s attention to the Karabakh conflict, European structures may think Karabakh has no connection with the Caucasian conflict while there is much in common between the given conflicts,” he adds.
Victor Engibaryan calls on Armenia’s leadership to carry out a complementary policy with Russia and Georgia as they both regard Armenia’s neutrality as duplicity and cowardice.
“We must stand ready and show Moscow that we fully understand them as Armenia faces a similar problem and we want Russia to understand us too. On the other hand, Georgia should know that Armenia shares their concerns,” says the EMA chairman.
Generally, Mr. Engibaryan thinks Armenia and Georgia will remain friends regardless of future developments in the region.
