  • BAKU: Azerbaijan Cannot Deprive France Of Co-Chairing In OSCE Minsk

    AZERBAIJAN CANNOT DEPRIVE FRANCE OF CO-CHAIRING IN OSCE MINSK GROUP FOR CRIMINALIZING DENIAL OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE

    Azerbaijan Business Center
    Feb 1 2012

    Baku, Fineko/abc.az. At the opening of the spring session Milli
    Majlis has had a discussion on the adoption of the law by the French
    Parliament criminalizing denial of the "genocide" of Armenians in
    the Ottoman Empire in 1915-17.

    In the course of the discussion, parliament's speaker Ogtay Asadov
    said that although France had lost its moral right to participate in
    the OSCE Minsk Group on settlement of Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict
    over Nagorno Garabagh conflict, physically they would remain in the
    Group, and we cannot still do anything.

    "We must examine the legal side of this issue, but cannot do anything.

    However, Azerbaijan will do everything necessary to protect the
    interests of Turkey and Azerbaijan," the speaker stated.

    The proposal to deprive France of participation in the Minsk Group
    was made by MP Ganira Pashayeva, in case France still passes a law
    criminalizing denial of the "genocide" of Armenians.
