    Azerbaijan's ruling party says Georgian Laborites' remarks implausible
    Fri 06 May 2011 09:50 GMT | 12:50 Local Time


    New Azerbaijan Party has commented on a statement by Georgian Labor
    Party claiming that plan of coup against Azerbaijan is being prepared
    in Tbilisi.
    In his remarks to journalists on Friday, the ruling party deputy
    chairman Ali Ahmadov described this statement as implausible.

    `Georgia and Azerbaijan are not only strategic partners, but also two
    friendly countries with common national interests. Therefore, we
    believe the claims that Tbilisi is also involved in this reckless
    scheme are implausible,' he said.

    `I have also read the media reports and I think that a probe should be
    conducted to find out what is happing. No doubt, there are forces both
    outside and inside the country who are not interested in stability in
    our region, especially in Azerbaijan. But our country is committed to
    its course of development and Tbilisi supports this course,' the
    deputy chairman said.

    Earlier, the Georgian embassy in Azerbaijan described the statement by
    the Georgian Labour party as `nonsense.'

    On 4 May, Secretary-General of the Labour Party Soso Shatberashvili
    announced that Azerbaijani press had recently reported that U.S.
    ambassador to Azerbaijan Matthew Bryza met Georgian President Mikheil
    Saakashvili and Secretary of National Security Council Giga Bokeria in
    Tbilisi to discuss plans of a coup in Azerbaijan.

    Drawing conclusions from their own suggestions, the Labour Party asked
    the U.S. Senate not to confirm Matthew Bryza as ambassador to
    Azerbaijan.

    As interesting as it may seem, the statements by the Georgian Labour
    Party meet the demand of Armenian side who does not want Bryza to be
    confirmed in this post.
