    Azerbaijani Parliament addresses French Senate in protest against
    decision on made-up `Armenian genocide'

    [ 30 Dec 2011 13:48 ]


    Baku. Parvin Abbasov - APA. Milli Majlis, the parliament of
    Azerbaijan, addressed the French Senate in protest against the
    decision on made-up `Armenian genocide'. The text of letter was read
    by MP Sahiba Gafarova.

    The letter reads that Azerbaijani parliament is very concerned about
    the decision of the French parliament. `We call you to carefully
    approach the remote historic events, Undoubtedly if this draft law is
    adopted it will damage the basic principles of the democratic system -
    human rights and freedoms. On February 26, 1992, Armenian armed forces
    killed hundreds of peaceful Azerbaijanis in Khojaly with cruelty. If
    all of these are taken into consideration, the attempts to asses the
    historic events unilaterally can lead to disrespect to the historic
    realities'.

    It was emphasized in the letter that the adoption of such law will
    cast doubt on objectivity of the French co-chairmanship in the OSCE
    Minsk Group. `Milli Majlis of Azerbaijan calls the colleagues at the
    French Senate to be attentive and sensitive during the discussions of
    this issue and not to adopt the law'.

    The letter was approved by the parliament.
