A resolution issued by the European Parliament on the destruction of
Armenian monuments in Naxcivan is wide of the mark and this cannot
be the parliament's final document on the issue. At their meeting,
Azerbaijani Speaker Oqtay Asadov and new EU representative for South
Caucasus Peter Semneby mainly discussed the so-called document. Asadov
said that the fact that only 90 MEPs had taken part in the vote on
the resolution showed that it was biased.
The two men also discussed the future development of Azerbaijani-EU
ties. Asadov stressed the great importance of the EU projects,
especially the TRACECA [Transport Corridor Europe-Caucasus-Asia]
project, for Azerbaijan's integration into Europe.
