PanARMENIAN.Net – A cross-party “Group of Friendship and Solidarity with Nagorno Karabakh” has been created within the European Parliament, European Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy (EAFJD) reports.

The move was initiated by the Members of the European Parliament François Alfonsi (Officiel) (Greens-EFA; France), Sylvie Guillaume, députée européenne (S&D; France) and Peter van Dalen (EPP; Netherlands).

In a letter sent to all the members, the three MEPs called on all those who are concerned about the security and survival of the Armenians living in Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) to engage in the friendship Group.

The aim of the Friendship group is to give full support to the Armenian people of Artsakh who are suffering from oppression and occupation of their historic territory, the EAFJD said.
