Azeri MPs dissatisfied with Burjanadze's addressing NATO PA session
26 May 2007 [15:47] - Today.Az
Georgia's Parliament Speaker Nino Burjanadze addressed the NATO
Parliamentary Assembly's Spring Session in Portugal, saying her
country takes vital part in delivery of the Caspian energy resources
to Europe.
She added that Georgia experienced Russia's pressures and solved
various problems.
In her speech Burjanadze called on the world community to support
Ukraine in its difficulties but she was interrupted by a Ukrainian
parliamentary.
"You mind your own business. Ukraine will find a way-out," she heard.
Going on speaking, Nino Burjanadze said that granting independence to
Kosovo can't be a precedent for other "frozen conflicts" which she
referred to South Ossetia, Abkhazia and Transdnestrian conflicts, but
didn't touch on Nagorno Karabakh conflict between Azerbaijan and
Armenia.
Gudrat Hasanguliyev, a member of Azerbaijani delegation, protested
against her speech but Georgian MPs told him that Burjanadze forgot to
refer to Nagorno Karabakh because she was "angry and uneasy" while
speaking.
Hasanguliyev told APA correspondent that Georgian representatives came
up to him and said: "Nagorno Karabakh conflict is of different
character. Here separatists don't push for independence but Armenia
tries to annex this territory," Georgian delegation members sought
excuse.
"I told them that it is not correctly based answer. They knew that
Armenians declared a puppet republic in Nagorno Karabakh, an
inalienable territory of Azerbaijan, and "elected" puppet "president"
and "parliament" there. I explained them that this position doesn't
agree with neighborhood relations and cooperation," Hasanguliyev said.
