Vahe Gabrielyan had a meeting with members of both
chambers of the British Parliament and representatives
of Armenian community organizations in London. The RA
MFA Press and Information Department reports that the
meeting was organized by `Armenia Solidarity’
Armenian-British parliamentarian group and `Voice of
the New Generation’ publication. The meeting was
dedicated to latest offers to hold discussions in the
parliament over Armenia’s blockade by Turkey and the
Armenian Genocide. The offer to discuss the Armenian
Genocide issue was made by MP Bob Spink (Conservative
Party). It was supported by 68 MPs. And the author of
holding discussions over Armenia’s blockade by Turkey
is Nia Griffith. 66 MPs joint this initiative. In his
speech Vahe Gabrielyan expressed gratitude to MPs for
their activity aimed at recognizing the Armenian
Genocide and condemnation of Armenia’s blockade. He
scrupulously presented Yerevan’s stance concerning the
establishment of Armenian-Turkish relations and called
upon the British parliamentarians to use Britain’s
close ties with Turkey as much as possible for opening
the border with Armenia and establishing relations.
