    AURELIA GRIGORIU'S SCANDALOUS STATEMENT MAY COST THE LAWYER HER JOB
    by Alexander Avanesov

    Tuesday, July 9, 12:10

    Statement by Aurelia Grigoriu, Moldova's Parliamentary Lawyer, who
    blamed Armenia for committing genocide against the Azeri people,
    has provoked an international scandal and may cost the lawyer her
    job, Kommersant.md writes citing Speaker of Moldavian Palriament
    Igor Korman.

    Korman called the lawyer's words a 'serious mistake' and said
    that a group of 20 parliamentarians or he personally may claim her
    resignation.

    "We have perfect relations with Armenia and Azerbaijan and we care for
    these relations. It is necessary to refrain from such statements. She
    could speak of human rights and the Transdniestrian conflict, but
    never venture into others' home," he said. The speaker said that
    Aurelia Grigoriu will have to make explanations at the upcoming
    meeting of the Parliamentary Committee for Human Rights.

    "We are interested in the conflict's resolution as soon as possible
    in order not to spoil our relations with either of the countries,"
    the speaker said.

    During the July 4 Pan-European Conference in Armenia's National
    Assembly, Aurelia Grigoriu, Moldova's Parliamentary Advocate, blamed
    Armenia for occupation of 20% of Azerbaijani lands. When making
    her report dedicated to observation of human rights in the frozen
    conflict zones, Grigoriu said that Armenia allegedly occupied 20%
    of Azerbaijan's territory and committed genocide against Azeri people.

    The statement aroused discontent of official Yerevan, and the Armenian
    mass media slammed Grigoriu for being bribed by the Azeri authorities.
