/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A delegation representing the Armenian National
Committee of Canada (ANCC) met three senior officials of the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs, Central, East and South Europe Division to discuss
issues of concern to the Canadian-Armenian Community.
As reported by the ANCC, during the meeting, which lasted over an
hour, the ANCC delegates and the ministry officials discussed the
Nagorno Karabakh issue, the illegal blockade of Armenia by Turkey,
the establishment of a Canadian Embassy in Armenia, Canada-Armenia
bilateral relations, and future Canadian economic investment in
Armenia. The ministry officials were forthcoming and frank in their
approach and analysis of the issues. They said they were concerned with
the recent Azerbaijani Government military buildup and Baku’s rhetoric
to use force to solve the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. They hoped that
the mediation efforts by the Organization for Security and Co-operation
in Europe (OSCE) will find a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
