Президент Армении отказался от участия в Чикагском саммите НАТО

На саммите НАТО в рамках ожидаемой декларации предполагается дать общее определение конфликтам на Южном Кавказе и в Молдове, что противоречит принципам Минской группы ОБСЕ, обладающей международным мандатом по урегулированию нагорно-карабахского вопроса. Об этом заявил министр иностранных дел Армении 19 мая в Чикаго в рамках  вcтречи представителей стран-участниц по содействию безопасности в Афганистане в рамках проходящего саммита НАТО.

По словам главы МИД Армении, такая формулировка вопроса не соответствует тем заявлениям, которые были сделаны в последние года в рамках ОБСЕ. Он отметил, что подобного рода действия могут только навредить процессу урегулирования нагорно- карабахского вопроса. Именно поэтому, по словам Налбандяна, президент Армении Серж Саргсян отказался от участия в Чикагском саммите.

Как сообщили АрмИнф в МИД РА, Налбандян и министр диаспоры РА Грануш Акопян встретились с представителями армянской диаспоры в США. Налбандян представил приоритеты внешней политики Армении, процесс урегулирования нагорно-карабахского вопроса. Он отметил важность международного признания Геноцида армян, его криминализации. Коснулся министр и итогов парламентских выборов. Он подчеркнул важность армянской диаспоры в США в деле укрепления армяно-американского взаимного сотрудничества, а также вклад армянской диаспоры в развитие Армении.  Во встрече с министрами из Армении также участвовали представители религиозных, политических и общественных структур, в целом, представители около 400 общин.

The work is organised in five thematic groups focusing on peace and security, connectivity, environment, governance and gender and equality and in phase 2 of the project, which has just ended, around fifty participants took part in in-person and online meetings, and more than twenty others were involved indirectly.

The five thematic groups are now working on separate reports, which are expected to be finished in November and presented to the two governments and other stakeholders. The reports will outline a vision, up to 2040.
