Armenian, Azeri MPs to meet in October
Baku, July 5, AssA-Irada
The role of parliamentarians in settling the Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper
Garabagh conflict should increase, the Parliamentary Assembly of the
Council of Europe rapporteur on Upper Garabagh has said.
David Atkinson told a meeting of the PACE Monitoring Committee held
in Baku on Tuesday that special commissions on the conflict should be
set up both in Azerbaijan and Armenia. The Council of Europe is ready
to hold discussions in Strasbourg with participation of the
conflicting sides, he said.
`Members of the Azerbaijani and Armenian delegations at PACE should
also step up their activity in this area.’
The rapporteur expressed a hope that a meeting of the two countries’
MPs will take place during the next PACE session in October.*
