MFA: Armenia demonstrates lack of sincerity with regard to regional peace agenda

Armenian Government-funded propaganda campaigns once again demonstrate lack of sincerity of the Armenian side with regard to regional peace agenda, Aykhan Hajizada, Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said in a commentary on allegations in the report of the group led by former Danish Prime Minister and NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, Report informs.

“We are of the utmost belief that the one-sided stance and complete disregard of facts not only encourages revanchist groups in Armenia to take a more radical position against Azerbaijan, but also creates an illusion in society that the “West” does support Armenia’s non-constructive stance in the peace process,” the MFA Spokesperson said.

According to him, conducting expensive and futile slander campaigns through certain narrow-minded politicians, including within European institutions such as the European Parliament and the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, does not serve regional stability and peace-building efforts: “Instead, the Government of Armenia and the Armenian lobby groups must focus on promoting a genuine peace agenda in the region.”
