On September 29, the OSCE PA Special Representative on the South Caucasus Kristian Vigenin and the Head of the Armenian Delegation to OSCE PA Hermine Naghdalyan met with the residents of the Talish Village of Artsakh Republic.
At the meeting details were presented on the crimes committed in the Talish Village by the Azerbaijanis during the 2016 April four-day war.
Presenting the situation, one of the residents of the Talish Village Boris Mejlumyan noted that in 1992 the forcibly deported village was liberated on 14 April 1994, and in 2016 the Talish villagers were obliged to leave the village for the second time. The Talish Village has about 580 people, and in Boris Mejlumyan’s word, their combative spirit is unbreakable. “We will not lose the village,” he assured, noting that the Talish villagers are impatiently waiting for returning to the native village. Those present also raised the issue of the guarantees of the peaceful population’s security.
In his word, the OSCE PA Special Representative on the South Caucasus said: “It is always very hard to meet with the people, who have suffered as a consequence of war violence. One of my missions is to meet with those people and get informed what happens in reality. In the 21st century we should do our best in order not to have wars, and people will have an opportunity to live in peace. I hope that we as MPs, representatives of the people, should have our role in order the people can live in peace.”
In Kristian Vigenin’s word, the goal of his mission is to promote having dialogues between the countries of the region, the establishment and strengthening of peace.
Hermine Naghdalyan highlighted Kristian Vigenin’s meeting with the residents of the Talish Village of Artsakh Republic. She noted that on October 2-6, 2017 during the OSCE Autumn Meeting to be held in Andorra in the Committee on International and Political Affairs Mr Vigenin would present the results of the visit to Armenia.
