Strasbourg. Fuad Gulubeyli - APA. The Parliamentary Assembly of the
Council of Europe has today adopted a written declaration on Armenian
President Serzh Sargsyan's speech and slanders against Azerbaijan at
the Assembly on October 2.
The declaration was signed by 20 parliamentarians and distributed it
among the members of the Assembly.
APA's Europe bureau reports that the declaration developed on the
initiative of head of the Azerbaijani delegation to the PACE Samad
Seyidov was signed by members of the other countries represented in the
PACE, along with Azerbaijani parliamentarians. The declaration says:
"On 2 October 2013, Serzh Sargsyan, the President of Armenia, stated
before the Parliamentary Assembly: "We have never made any territorial
claims on Turkey; if you can find a single speech or statement saying
that, I would apologise to you...". In this regard, we recall one
of his numerous statements dated 23 July 2011 during a meeting with
students in Tsaghkadzor, Armenia. A student asked Mr Sargsyan if
Western Armenia, with Mount Ararat, would ever be united with Armenia.
Mr Sargsyan responded: "It depends on you and your generation. I
believe my generation has fulfilled the task in front of us; when it
was necessary in the beginning of the 1990s to defend part of our
fatherland - Karabakh - from the enemy, we did it" (asbarez.com;
panarmenian.net). His response to the young generation vividly
demonstrates his territorial claims on both Azerbaijan and Turkey,
as the Nagorno Karabakh region and Mount Agridag ("Ararat") are
internationally recognised territories of Azerbaijan and Turkey
respectively.
We kindly request the President of Armenia to keep his promise and
apologise for misleading the esteemed audience of the Parliamentary
Assembly."
