The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech parliament has adopted a resolution on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Gayane Abrahamyan, an MP from the My Step faction and the head of the Armenian National Assembly’s Armenia-Czech Republic Friendship Group, said on Wednesday.

“In the resolution the Foreign Affairs Committee calls on the governments of third countries not to become involved in the conflict and not to allow individual militants from other areas to be transferred to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone,” she wrote on Facebook.

The committee calls on all parties to the conflict to put an end to the armed conflict, to allow the dignified burial of the victims' bodies and to return to negotiations within the format of the OSCE Minsk Group and its co-chairs, the lawmaker said. The committee expresses regret over the loss of lives and expresses its indignation at the bombing of civilian targets, as well as the use of internationally prohibited weapons, in particular cluster bombs.

“As the head of the Armenia-Czech Republic Friendship Group, I extend my gratitude to Mr. Marek Benda, Chairman of the Committee on Constitutional and Legal Affairs of the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech parliament and head of the Czech Republic-Armenia Friendship Group, for all the efforts and dedication,” Abrahamyan said.
