The chairman of the Assembly of Armenians of Azerbaijan, Grigory Ayvazyan, stated that the Assembly intends to request Nagorno Karabakh authorities to provide the territories in Western Karabakh for formation of the Armenian Republic of Aghvank.

Ayvazyan informed that the Assembly members met with the Council of Europe delegation in Yerevan.

“Filled with Azerbaijani lies, the European politicians confessed they did not know the truth about the Karabakh conflict and supported the idea to form the Armenian Republic of Aghvank in the liberated territories. They also offered the Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan to form government in exile on this land,” he told journalists on November 5.

As to Baku’s rejection to enroll Armenian candidates for the upcoming parliamentary election, Ayvazyan said, “If Baku can’t tolerate one ethnic Armenia in its Milli Mejlis, so how can the Armenian-populated Nagorno Karabakh be a part of Azerbaijan.”
