News.az information agency spread disinformation over the European
Commission Progress Report Armenia 2009. Quoting Toby Vogel's article
in the European Voice, Azerbaijani media presented his personal view
as the EuroCommission report.
Particularly, the report highlights Armenia's success over signing
Switzerland-backed normalization protocols with Turkey. "The EU was
pleased to note Armenia's continued commitment to pursue the process
of normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations but at the same time
expressed concern about the loss of momentum in this process," the
report says.
The lack of progress in the protocol ratification process followed
as Turkey linked the opening of the borders and the establishment of
diplomatic relations with the progress of Armenia-Azerbaijan talks
on Nagorno-Karabakh, according to the report.
Then, T. Vogel expresses his own view on the issue stating that
Nagorno-Karabakh "is Azerbaijan's territory, occupied by the Armenian
military forces in 1990." Naturally, the European Commission report
puts nothing of the kind. To make sure, you can read the report here:

Thus, we can do nothing but advise our Azerbaijani colleagues to work
with the real, initial sources.
