Ongoing border delimitation laying basis for final establishment of border - Alen Simonyan
ArmInfo.The video about Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, distributed by
opposition deputies of the Armenian parliament, is an outright manipulation, Chairman of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia Alen Simonyan told reporters on May 21.
He noted that the video made an attempt to take this or that
statement of the prime minister out of context. "They presented
statements made by the head of government 5-6 years ago and compared
them with today's realities. But excuse me, the situation is changing
rapidly, one might say hourly. You can, for example, compare the
situation after the war in Artsakh or the attack by Azerbaijan on the
territory of Armenia "These are completely different realities. But
one thing is clear: our attitude towards our homeland has not changed
and is not changing," said the head of the Armenian parliament,
pointing, among other things, to the process of delimitation and
demarcation of borders, during which the Armenian side will defend
every centimeter of its territory.
Simonyan noted that the current process is laying the foundations for
determining the final border. The current demarcation line in the
area of the village of Kirants will not be revised. From a legal
point of view, the speaker noted, this would be wrong, since "25
houses on that side will remain with us." "We do not plan to limit
ourselves to just this section. We have to go along the entire
border. There may be some movement on their part, but we cannot cede
territory to Armenia, and we do not expect to take anything from
them. Therefore, we are saying where the border, that's where it
goes," said the head of parliament.
As for the question of where the next stage of delimitation will take
place, as the speaker emphasized, he has no information about this.
