Sharmazanov sent a letter to the head of Paraguayan parliament in
connection with the declaration on "the genocide in Khojaly"
Yerevan December 22
Ani Mshetsyan. On December 22, the Vice Speaker of the Armenian
Parliament Eduard Sharmazanov sent a letter to Paraguay Pedro Lorenzo
Aliana Rodriguez, Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament
of Paraguay, where he expressed his concern over the unilateral
declaration on the Nagorno-Karabakh issue adopted by the legislative
body of this country.
Sharmazanov in the letter, in particular, noted that such documents
distort the reality and reflect the false position of Azerbaijan on
the Karabakh problem, in particular, regarding the events in Khojaly
in 1992.
The Vice-Speaker of the National Assembly stressed: "This is a biased
and anti-Armenian document, which damages the peace process." The
Armenian forces did not and could not have anything to do with the
events in Khojaly. "The ex-president of Azerbaijan Ayaz Mutalibov said
on April 2, 1992 in one of his an interview with the Russian media
(Nezavisimaya Gazeta), that the Khojaly tragedy was organized by the
Azerbaijani opposition to overthrow it, and Armenians have nothing to
do with it. "
Eduard Sharmazanov expressed the hope that in the future everything
possible will be done to bring the position of Armenia and the OSCE
Minsk Group co-chairs to the Paraguayan legislators on the Karabakh
settlement, which will henceforth avoid the adoption of such documents
that distort reality.
