"The reflection of Azerbaijani realities in PACE rapporteur David
Atkinson's report will make useless any Armenian propaganda based on
lies. The European deputies defending European values will support
Azerbaijan's fair cause," the deputy executive secretary of the ruling
New Azerbaijan Party, Mubariz Qurbanli, has told Trend.
Qurbanli said there were reports that Armenian MPs were seriously
preparing for the winter session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the
Council of Europe (PACE). However, this is unlikely to make any impact
on Atkinson's report.
"At a time when the Armenian occupation of a fifth of Azerbaijani
territory and the deportation of more than 1m refugees and internally
displaced persons from their homes are recognized facts, all the
Armenian lies will not be very convincing. On the other hand, I hope
that during the discussion of the report, the members of the
Azerbaijani delegation will be able to give a due response to Armenian
propaganda based on lies," Qurbanli said.
