After the exchange of greetings, the President of the RA NA noted that he had repeatedly witnessed the active work of the British group, which is a good example for the parliamentarians.
Alen Simonyan presented the post-war situation and detailed issues regarding the complex situation in the region. He mentioned that in our country they are following the developments taking place in Parliament of Great Britain and the activities of all those parliamentarians who demonstrated the level of perception of the situation in our region after the 2020 war. “We believe that the targeted statements and pressure of our international partners can prevent further aggression by Azerbaijan, as well as contribute to the elimination of the atmosphere of impunity,” Alen Simonyan added.
The Members of the RA NA delegation thoroughly informed their British colleagues about the blockade of Artsakh Armenians, the crisis of the Lachin Corridor and the encroachments of the Azerbaijani military forces against the territorial integrity of Armenia.
