Azeri delegation refuses to attend Euronest session in Yerevan

PanARMENIAN.Net - The 4th plenary session of the Euronest parliamentary assembly will be held in Yerevan March 16-20, 2015, the chairman of parliamentary committee on foreign relations stated.

According to Artak Zakaryan, the decision was confirmed at the meeting of the Euronest PA Bureau in Brussels, with a parliamentary working group to be formed to organize the event on a proper level, the National Assembly press service reported.

The chair of Azeri delegation to Euronest Elkhan Suleymanov expressed his indignation over the abovementioned. As he noted, Azeri delegation refuses to attend the session until Yerevan fulfils a number of conditions.

“Yerevan’s hosting the session is an affront to Azerbaijan, with the fact proving practice of double standards by Euronest and European organizations, as well as biased attitude toward Azerbaijan,” Trend quoted Suleymanov as saying.
