Armenian FM’s calumnious statement at PACE resolutely condemned
Strasbourg, June 27 (AZERTAC). As earlier reported, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe holds its summer session here. In the frame of session, the PACE Monitoring Committee is having its exceptional gathering.
PACE Monitoring Committee co-rapporteurs on Azerbaijan Pedro Agramunt (Spain) and Joseph Debono Grech (Malta) have reported on the results of visit to Azerbaijan to be discussed by the committee members, Samad Seyidov, the head of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE, said.
As the head of Azerbaijani delegation, Seyidov brought to the attention of meeting participants the slanderous and malicious statements made by the foreign minister of Armenia Edward Nalbandyan, who is the acting chairman of the PACE Ministerial Committee.
The Azerbaijani delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has condemned the statement of Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbadyan made at the PACE summer session.
“In my speech, I thoroughly discussed the false and biased statements of the head of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan, expressed on the first day of the PACE summer session,” Seyidov said. “"The Azerbaijani delegation considers the minister's speech as unforgivable because an attempt was made to spread false ideas inherent to Armenia among the MPs, by using such a high position. Actually, this action must be regarded as an open provocation against Azerbaijan.”
Seyidov also said that the committee members consider the Armenian minister's statement as provocative and point out that these remarks are inadmissible.
