Ukrainian scientist joins Armenia-Azerbaijan Platform for Peace
Baku, March 27, AZERTAC
Ukrainian scientist and public figure Tatiana Krupa made a statement saying she joins “Armenia-Azerbaijan Platform for Peace”.
The statement says: “The most important thing to bequeath to future generations is peace. That’s why peaceful solution of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict that has been lasting for more than 25 years is necessary. I would like to express my support and respect to territorial integrity, sovereignty and internationally recognized borders of Azerbaijan and Armenia.
I want to emphasize the importance of implementation of relevant resolutions adopted by UN Security Council, and resolutions and decisions of other international organizations. I would like to note the importance of measures taken by OSCE Minsk Group towards the settlement of the conflict.
Pre-war relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan developed based on the principles of close neighborhood that were formed over centuries. However, I state with regret that hostile relations have been formed between nations in the context of war because of unresolved conflict. I believe that Public Diplomacy is a necessary step for the solution of the conflict. Therefore, I reiterate my support to this initiative and make a statement about joining “Armenia-Azerbaijan Platform for Peace” aimed at peaceful settlement of the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and restoring and preserving peace in South Caucasus.”
