Because of the Armenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ non-offensive and short-sighted policy, once again we are experiencing déjà vu, said Democratic Party of Armenia (HDK) Leader Aram Sargsyan, speaking on the Nagorno-Karabakh resolution put forth by Azerbaijan to the UN.
“The following turns out: every time Azerbaijan presents a new resolution, the Republic of Armenia’s foreign ministry becomes satisfied with a statement on duty,” said Sargsyan. In his words, any position remains just a statement, while a political position must be expressed through a diplomatic note.
Sargsyan raised a question: why doesn’t Armenia present such resolutions? “The question remains unanswered, because our diplomatic ministry in no way responds to those statements. At least let it provide a clear answer, as to why Armenia isn’t the initiator.”
The HDK leader also focused on Azerbaijani soldiers’ intervention into Nagorno-Karabakh territory on August 31.
“The Armenian side shouldn’t have prepared an incomprehensible reportage for H1’s [Armenian Public TV] camera operators and directors, but rather turned that into a film to be presented to the whole world and show with convincing facts what the Azerbaijanis are doing,” he said.
Aram Sargsyan recalled that Armenia is in an information war, and now it constantly seems that the Armenian side is attempting to explain that it’s not responsible for those provocations.
“In this respect, each time we express our discontent with the foreign affairs ministry’s work,” concluded the HDK leader.
