Chairman of the subcommittee on Nagorno Karabakh presented the report
on carried-out works to the PACE Political Bureau
Strasbourg. Fuad Gulubeyli - APA. Within the PACE winter session
President of the PACE Mevlut Chavushoglu held his last press conference
in this post. APA's European bureau reports that speaking about his
two-year activity in this position, Mevlut Chavushoglu spoke about the
carried out works. Chairman of the PACE said that he mostly focused
attention on the parliamentary diplomacy. He also underlined that
Subcommittee on Nagorno Karabakh was revived.
"Unfortunately our Armenians friends don't tell the truth. The
organization of Subcommittee on Nagorno Karabakh is the independent
decision of the Assembly and its Bureau accepted this decision
unanimously. I haven't voted on this issue. My work is to ensure the
fulfillment of the decisions made by the Bureau. That is not my own
decision. Consequently I must say that Armenian press doesn't tell the
truth. It is not right to say that it was initiated by me because of
my Turkish origin. The subcommittee existed before my presidency and
chaired by deceased Rassel Johnston. The Bureau decided to re-establish
this subcommittee. New chairman and members of the Subcommittee were
elected. The chairman of the subcommittee presented his report on
their recent activity at our Bureau meeting. Some people including
Armenian representatives showed unfair and preconceived positions
against me. They could apologize to me for it. Now the Bureau must
make a decision on the subcommittee's future activity".
