Baku looks for an OSCE replacement everywhere, even in Socialist International

June 15, 2010 - 10:00 AMT  00:48 GMT
It has probably become a norm for Baku to talk about “inaction of the OSCE and change of format” at every international forum. But the arguments are not serious, such as “This organization cannot possibly regulate the Karabakh conflict, return the territories, punish Armenia” and other such nonsense. The recent revelation of Baku in Yerevan was voiced at the conference of the Socialist International (SI). In response to the request (it can be given no other name) of Azeri representative Salahuddin Allahverdiyev, who asked the Socialist International to engage in the settlement of the Karabakh conflict, Secretary General Luis Ayala only shrugged his shoulders. Then he explained that the SI cannot deal with such things as it’s not its job, but Baku, obviously, wouldn’t understand such things.

Since the discussions on the project of introducing amendments to the Law on Language and the Law on General Education have initiated, activists of the grouping “We are against reopening of foreign-language schools in Armenia” have gathered in front of the Parliament building to stage protest actions.
