contradicts the norms and principles of the international law,
obligations undertaken before the Council of Europe PACE Resolutions

via mediation of the OSCE Minsk Group and held presidential elections
in occupied Azerbaijani territories.
In addition, the document says that considering the sharp reaction
of the international organizations and community to the regime
of emergency situation, which was announced in the country after
elections, Armenia fired at Armed Forces and citizens of Azerbaijan
from their positions in occupied Azerbaijani territories to divert the
attention. As a result, many people have been reported either killed
or wounded and the situation has become more tensed in the region.

the tension, always breaks ceasefire regime and thus, brings harms
to the peaceful solution of the conflict.

any opportunity for Azerbaijan and putting it as a fact of today.

actions strengthening tension in South Caucasus will raise the issue
that the PACE should assess this step and take more serious measures
and mechanisms to prevent these actions.
