Fri 06 May 2011 09:50 GMT | 12:50 Local Time
New Azerbaijan Party has commented on a statement by Georgian Labor
Party claiming that plan of coup against Azerbaijan is being prepared
in Tbilisi.
In his remarks to journalists on Friday, the ruling party deputy
chairman Ali Ahmadov described this statement as implausible.
`Georgia and Azerbaijan are not only strategic partners, but also two
friendly countries with common national interests. Therefore, we
believe the claims that Tbilisi is also involved in this reckless
scheme are implausible,' he said.
`I have also read the media reports and I think that a probe should be
conducted to find out what is happing. No doubt, there are forces both
outside and inside the country who are not interested in stability in
our region, especially in Azerbaijan. But our country is committed to
its course of development and Tbilisi supports this course,' the
deputy chairman said.
Earlier, the Georgian embassy in Azerbaijan described the statement by
the Georgian Labour party as `nonsense.'
On 4 May, Secretary-General of the Labour Party Soso Shatberashvili
announced that Azerbaijani press had recently reported that U.S.
ambassador to Azerbaijan Matthew Bryza met Georgian President Mikheil
Saakashvili and Secretary of National Security Council Giga Bokeria in
Tbilisi to discuss plans of a coup in Azerbaijan.
Drawing conclusions from their own suggestions, the Labour Party asked
the U.S. Senate not to confirm Matthew Bryza as ambassador to
Azerbaijan.
As interesting as it may seem, the statements by the Georgian Labour
Party meet the demand of Armenian side who does not want Bryza to be
confirmed in this post.
