On behalf of the Artsakh Parliament and personally myself, I express gratitude to you and the members of the group for the desire and determination to develop friendly relations with the people of Artsakh.

This initiative is a new institutional level of our cooperation which began two years ago by your visit to Stepanakert.

I am sure it will become an effective platform for expanding the mutually beneficial ties between Artsakh and Canada, in particular, in the sphere of humanitarian cooperation”.
