Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Czech Republic welcomed the  adoption of resolution by country`s parliament on recognition of  Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey

ArmInfo. On June 28, the delegation headed by the Vice-Speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia, the head of the Armenia-Czech Republic friendship group  Eduard Sharmazanov, met with Deputy Foreign Minister Lukash Kautsky  during his visit to the Czech Republic.

Having positively evaluated the dynamics of the development of the  Armenian-Czech relations, the sides stressed the importance of  further development of bilateral relations. The interlocutors  addressed the need to continue the political dialogue between the  Republic of Armenia and the EU. The NA Vice Speaker stated that  Armenia, together with the European partners, is committed to the  consistent expansion and deepening of the process of institutional  reforms aimed at strengthening democracy, human rights and the rule  of law.

Referring to regional problems, E. Sharmazanov noted that Turkey  continues its denial policy, holds the border with the Armenia and  supports the terrorist actions of Azerbaijan. "Unlike Azerbaijan and  Turkey, the people of Artsakh build a democratic country. Both  Armenia and Artsakh are full-fledged bearers of the European system  of values and civilization," the vice speaker of the National  Assembly said, in which context the parties considered unacceptable  militaristic rhetoric and military solution of the problem.

Lukasz Kaucki positively assessed the process of democratic reforms  in Armenia and stressed that the Czech Republic, as a member state of  the EU, is ready to contribute to the continuation of democratic  reforms in Armenia. The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the  Czech Republic highly appreciated the decision of the Chamber of  Deputies of the Parliament of the country on the adoption on April  25, 2017 of a resolution on recognition and condemnation of the  Armenian Genocide.

To note, on June 27 in the honor of the delegation headed by the NA  Vice Speaker, on behalf of the chairman of the Czech-Armenia  friendship group, the Parliament of the Czech Republic, Robin Bienis,  an official reception was organized in the Chamber of Deputies. For  contribution to the adoption of the resolution recognizing and  condemning the Armenian Genocide, as well as for active work towards  strengthening the Czech-Armenian inter-parliamentary relations,  Vice-Speaker of the National Assembly Sharmazanov handed a number of  deputies to the Chamber the RA NA Medal of Honor, the RA NA Honorary  Diploma and the Memorial Medal of the NA Speaker RA. In his speech  Sharmazanov, in particular, stressed: "The adoption of the resolution  recognizing and condemning the Armenian Genocide is a serious step in  the defense of human rights and against genocides. The Armenian  Genocide was the first in the twentieth century greatest disaster for  humanity, and the recognition of the genocide by the Czech Republic  is your country's response to barbarism. We admire your courage, thus  you prevent new genocides. It should be noted that Turkey has not  changed for 102 years - it continues its denial policy. We must  together fight against the Turkish policy of denial and in the name  of protecting human rights."
