    "International institutions need to shift from words to actions and
    punish Azerbaijan by all international laws"

    November 24 2014


    NA MP Margarit Yesayan is convinced Recently, we learned from the PACE
    website that years ago PACE adopted a resolution condemning Azerbaijan
    for granting Ramil Safarov a pardon. The Standing Committee of
    Parliamentary Assembly of Council of Europe (PACE) condemns Azerbaijan
    for using one of the conventions of the Council of Europe has released
    convicted Ramil Safarov immediately after extradition. The resolution
    compiled based on the report of UK MP Christopher Chope adopted after
    the discussions held in Brussels reads that the use of Article 12 of
    Convention on the "Transfer of Sentenced Persons" for the Azerbajani
    officer Ramil Safarov's case is an "infringement of bona fide
    principles and the rule of law in international relations." The RA NA
    MP, head of Armenian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of La
    Francophonie, Margarit Yesayan, is sure that this conviction is late,
    but an important fact, which perhaps can be a call for sobriety for
    different international organizations. "If this statement, this
    conviction were in time, maybe Azerbaijan would finally have started
    being accountable for its policy. Destruction of the helicopter
    performing a training flight obviously is contrary to all
    international norms, and, naturally, the international institutions
    are obligated to give an assessment. First of all, to defend their
    credibility and reputation. Reactions, condemnations and expressing
    concerns were not late, but they are very much the same to nothing
    saying statements made until now. Our European friends are always
    limited to expressing concerns only. And this very fact, enables
    Azerbaijan to be guided by the principle of absolute impunity,
    violations of universal and international norms. Azerbaijan does not
    fit into the universal human values system. It is more convenient for
    a country where the human rights and the right to self-determination
    of the nation have no value. And when someone puts itself beyond
    generally accepted norms, it makes no more sense to speak to it with a
    civilized vocabulary and diplomatic nuances. It is high time for the
    international organizations to condemn not in words but in actions,
    the subject matter is not only the Armenian-Azerbaijani relations, but
    the mandate and influential power of the same EU, PACE, OSCE, State
    Department and the Minsk Group. With its inhuman behavior and trade of
    corpse, Azerbaijan sends a challenge to everyone and in response, it
    receives a parity and nothing saying calls and exhortations, hence,
    also an opportunity to start a war. And the experienced, visionary and
    prudent officials of international organizations cannot but understand
    it." To the question of "Aravot" whether the behavior of the
    Azerbaijani side to the representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office
    Anjey Kasprishik may become an opportunity for the international
    structures assess the situation more sober, as it was also a slap on
    the OSCE and Minsk Group, Margarit Yesayan said, "Obviously, what
    happened is the result of a bad manner, our neighbors once again did
    not hide their true face, and yes, I agree that this move was a slap
    on the same international community, therefore, I reiterate my belief
    that this should be given an adequate response by the structures
    representing the same community". Note that the Azerbaijani side had
    not allowed the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office
    Anjey Kasprishik to visit the place of falling of Karabakh helicopter
    downed by Azerbaijan. According to the MP, the behavior of the
    Armenian side completely fits in the framework of international norms,
    and also followed by its assessment, the PACE and OSCE and other
    structures should demonstrate an equivalent counteraction to
    Azerbaijan, and first of all it was to be done by the CSTO, to which
    Armenia is a member (whereas Nikolay Bordyuzha's statement was as
    neutral as the US State Department's), and also it was to be done the
    strategic partner Russian Foreign Ministry. How long can the Parties
    be called for peace, persistently failing to notice that only one side
    is search for war by crossing out the peace, searching openly and
    being armed daily, and everyone knows and sees that this side is
    Azerbaijan. The history of all terrorist groupings shows that when you
    arm today, tomorrow the weapon will be directed against you.
    Forgetting the law of the boomerang is the most dangerous for
    political and public figures. The history gives lessons and we should
    not forget these lessons. Margaret Yesayan did not share our
    observation that the matter is also the results of dereliction of
    duties of foreign policy of Armenia. the MP opines, "The entities
    responsible for foreign policy of Armenia are doing everything
    possible to regulate the situation without resumption of war and
    without new victims. Artsakh problem should be resolved exclusively
    peacefully. Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, in these years, have done
    everything and still will do to solve the problem through negotiations
    and only through peace. All those who fume about swagger with war
    calls and the statements of giving an equivalent response to
    this-or-that move by Azerbaijanis should ultimately realize that
    swaggering is unsubstantiated for receiving success in foreign policy
    and pro-Armenia solution of the Karabakh conflict." Margarit Yesayan
    cannot talk about non-government forces with the same praising. "None
    of them said anything during these days, no call was made to the same
    international structures and Azerbaijan. This also speaks of
    inadequate behavior of these forces, they do not realize that the
    homeland is one and the only one, and it does not matter at all
    whether you are a government or non-government."
