ARMENIAN FM ADDRESSED OSCE SESSION
A group of deputies of the European Parliament, who visited Nagorno Karabakh in 1992, made the following statement: "Taking into consideration Azerbaijan's advantage of man-power and military equipment one can suppose that Karabakh will give up in a few weeks… It is obvious that the defeat will be followed by genocide and deportation". Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian brought in this extract from the Europarliamentarians' statement when addressing the 12-th OSCE session, and added: "Let not my words but the words of the group of deputies of the European parliament serve as a basis for you". About half a million of Armenianrefugees from Azerbaijan are still waiting for the settlement of the conflict, he noted. V. Oskanian also reminded of Azerbaijan's policy towards the occupied Armenian territories of NKR, where Azeris are moving in the houses belonging to Armenians due to state programs carried out by the Azeri leadership.
Touching upon V. Oskanian's speech we would like to remind of some extracts from the US Senate resolution from May 1,1991, which says in part: "Taking into account the fact that the USSR and the government of the Azerbaijani Republic are continuing attacks at the Armenian population of Nagorno Karabakh, Armenia and Azerbaijan; the Soviet and Azeri armed forces are destroying Armenian villages and deporting the inhabitants from Nagorno Karabakh and territories bordering with it we

1.condemn the attacks at innocent people in Karabakh, and in the territories bordering with it
2.condemn the military operations and firing upon the civilians at the eastern and southern borders of Armenia.
