    NAIRA ZOHRABYAN: 'THE ATTEMPT OF REVITALIZING THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON THE NK ISSUE IS CONDEMNED TO FAILURE'

    YEREVAN, MAY 17, ARMENPRESS: 'After meeting with Armenian political
    forces, the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of
    Europe Mevlut Cavusoglu understood that his initiative for revitalizing
    the subcommittee on the NK issue within PACE is just condemned to
    failure,' Naira Zohrabyan, deputy of the 'Prosperous Armenia' faction
    and member of the Armenian delegation to PACE, told Armenpress today.

    Naira Zohrabyan says there is no sense to discuss the NK issue out of
    the format of the OSCE Minsk Group. She added that the same viewpoint
    was expressed at the PACE April session by the CoE Secretary General
    Thorbjorn Jagland and Micheline Calmy-Rey, head of the Swiss Federal
    Department of Foreign Affairs.

    According to Naira Zohrabyan, they stressed they did not consider
    it appropriate to take any additional initiative for the NK issue in
    parallel with the OSCE Minsk Group. 'The former President of PACE Luis
    Maria de Puig had paused the process of revitalizing the subcommittee
    on the NK issue, as he realized the existence of such a subcommittee
    in PACE was inefficient.

    I do not understand why Mr. Cavusoglu decided to revitalize the
    subcommittee,' Naira Zohrabyan said. She informed a discussion on
    the subcommittee was held during the PACE April session, in which
    Mevlut CavuÅ~_oglu, Head of the Armenian parliamentary delegation
    Davit Harutyunyan and Head of the Azerbaijani delegation Samat Seidov
    took part. 'Arrangements were made to continue the consultations on
    this theme. There was no essential discussion on revitalizing the
    works of the subcommittee,' Naira Zohrabyan, member of the Armenian
    delegation to PACE, said. She says the 'Prosperous Armenia' party does
    not approve the existence of such a subcommittee in PACE.'We cannot
    trust to the initiative a politician, who is one of the founders and
    activists of the Turkish 'Justice and Development' party, and whose
    position on the NK issue was biased and Azerbaijan-oriented.

    The speeches of the members of the Azerbaijani parliamentary
    delegation and the PACE President Mevlut CavuÅ~_oglu did not vary in
    their positions. This politician is not reliable as PACE President,'
    Naira Zohrabyan mentioned.
