Anti-Armenian statements by PACE President Mevlut CavuÅ~_oglu and
PACE Rapporteur on Armenia's monitoring Göran Lindblad prove once
more that it would at least be naïve to expect such people to be
impartial, Hermine Nahdalyan, a member of the Armenian delegation to
PACE representing the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA), told NEWS.am,
commenting on the to officials' anti-Armenian statements.
"None of the anti-Armenian documents initiated by Turkey and Azerbaijan
is without Lindblad's signature. And this man is supposed to prepare
a report on Armenia! It is clear that any impartiality is out of the
question," Nahdalyan said. The same can be said of CavuÅ~_oglu, who
does not miss a chance to make anti-Armenian statements. On the other
hand, Nahdalyan stressed the Armenian delegation will go on working
with the new co-rapporteur in conformity with PACE's decision. "But
I stress that Armenia's fate does not at all depend on individuals
or international institutions. Our future depends on our own steps,"
Nahdalyan said.
Following his meetings in Stockholm, CavuÅ~_oglu left for Göteborg
to take part in a conference. Göran Lindblad, Chairman of the
Sweden-Turkey parliamentary friendship commission and a member of
the Moderate Party, participated in the conference as well.
The PACE Chairman pointed out that Turkey is developing relations
with both the West and the East. He added that Turkey is willing
to normalize relations with all its neighbors. The most important
condition to improvement of relations with Armenia is its vacating
"the annexed Azeri lands." If Armenia meets with condition, Turkey will
improve its relations with that state, CavuÅ~_oglu said. He stressed
Turkey has always supported Azerbaijan and will go on doing so.
In his turn, Göran Lindblad, who is an advocate of Turkey's arguments,
spoke of the parliamentary elections to be held in Sweden on September
19 and pointed out that the left bloc, which pushed the Armenian
Genocide bill through Parliament on March 11, are willing to submit
the Armenian Genocide bill to the European Union (EU) and the U.N.
They have reached an agreement and want the topic of the Armenian
Genocide be included in school textbooks. To thwart their initiatives,
Göran Lindblad called for voting for the Moderate Party and other
right-ring parties.
