On June 13, during the public hearing held in the village of Tekali, Georgia, entitled “European integration: Georgia’s experience as a tool for conflict transformation”, in his speech, the coordinator of Gazakh-Aghstafa Regional Division of the National Committee of Helsinki Civil Assembly, Khamis Masimov, announced, “Armenia and Azerbaijan are under the shield. It is definitely so. As to under whose shield, it is also definite. I do not understand how the European integration can solve the Karabakh conflict. It’s an absurd. If we consider that the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan choose completely different figures but not the peoples, if we consider that the civil sector of Azerbaijan and Armenia is completely ruined, then we should say, what European integration we can talk about. I think it would be better if we talk about the Caucasus integration, the democratic diplomacy”.
