The Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) Subcommittee
on Nagorno Karabakh convened its first sitting yesterday without the
participation of the Armenian delegation. The Armenian delegation
continues boycotting the activity of the Subcommittee.
Representatives of the Azerbaijani delegation, the PACE rapporteurs
on Armenia and Azerbaijan, as well as one representative from each
PACE group and Chairman of the Subcommittee Jordi Xucla i Costa
participated in the sitting.
Member of the Armenian delegation Armen Rustamyan declared after the
meeting that Armenian cannot attend the sittings of a committee,
the initiator of which was Turkish Chairman of the Parliamentary
Assembly, Mevlut Chavusoglu, who spares no effort to have anti-Armenian
resolutions and decisions pass under his chairmanship.
"The subcommittee will turn completely ineffective, if they try to
take any decision in the absence of the main parties to the conflict,
Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh," Rustamyan said.
The PACE Chairman intends to submit a draft anti-Armenian resolution
on Nagorno Karabakh to PACE Bureau by January, member of the Armenian
delegation Naira Zohrabyan says.
