    ARAVOT: PRESCOTT MAKES CRITICAL REMARKS ABOUT AZERBAIJAN

    Tert.am
    06.10.11

    Commenting on yesterday's meeting of the Council of Europe
    Parliamentary Assembly, the paper says John Prescott voiced critical
    remarks about Azerbaijan.

    It came after the Azerbaijani delegates participating in the Assembly's
    autumn session slammed Armenia for what they considered occupation
    and aggression, says the paper.

    And it was despite the fact that the person chairing the meeting
    asked the participants to demonstrate restraint and focus only on the
    topics under discussion (situation with democracy and emigration),
    the paper comments.

    "It is ridiculous that the Azerbaijanis are teaching us lessons,"
    Armen Rustamyan, an Armenian delegate (from ARF-D faction in National
    Assembly) attending the session was quoted as telling the Assembly.

    "Azerbaijan is not the world's most democratic country. You'd better
    use the energy you demonstrate here in your home country," Rustamyan
    said addressing the Azeri delegates, says the paper.
