Azerbaijani Parliamentarian Ganira Pashayeva, participating in
the PACE winter session within a delegation from Azerbaijan, has
developed a document on the historical monuments of Azerbaijan,
constantly destroyed by Armenian occupants.
In line with the document "historic monuments represent a cultural
heritage of nations and their protection is a must to flourish our
common European values".
The document says that it is now for 20 years since Azerbaijani
historic monuments are constantly destroyed by Armenia on the
occupied Azerbaijani territories. It enumerates cultural, scientific
and other monuments destroyed by Armenians in the occupied lands of
Azerbaijan. For example, 24 historic monuments, 20 religious monuments,
353 educational and cultural centers were destroyed by Armenians in the
Fizuli region of Azerbaijan (occupied by Armenia on 23.08.1993) only.
"Having expressed its deep concern over the destruction of Azerbaijani
historic monuments inconsistent with European values the Assembly
encourages the Committee of Ministers and CoE member-states: to
call immediately on the Council of Europe member states to take the
necessary steps to influence Armenia to stop destruction of Azerbaijani
historic monuments on the occupied Azerbaijani territories; to give a
legal and political assessment to these actions by Armenia; to call on
Armenia to implement Resolution 1416 from 2003 (demanding withdrawal
of Armenian forces from the occupied Azerbaijani territories)",
the document says.
The document has been signed by 30 participants of the PACE winter
session.
