YEREVAN, JULY 4, ARMENPRESS: The Azerbaijan’s regular order failed during the Pan-European Conference “The European Standards of Rule of Law and the Scope of Discretion of Powers in the Member States of the Council of Europe” held at the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia. This was stated to Armenpress by the deputy of the Republican Party of Armenia faction of the National Assembly Davit Harutyunyan, touching upon the report of the Parliamentary Advocate of the Republic of Moldova Aurelia Grigoriu “The protection of human rights and security in “frozen conflicts” areas”. “It is obvious that it is the regular order of the Azerbaijani side. We are familiar to the content of many similar texts. We know them by heart”, - emphasized Davit Harutyunyan.

During her report “The protection of human rights and security in “frozen conflicts” areas”, the Parliamentary Advocate of the Republic of Moldova Aurelia Grigoriu made a statement, which does not have any connection to the reality. She announced that “Armenia occupied 20% of the Azerbaijan’s territory and the Khojalu Genocide was implemented by the Armenians”. The Parliamentary Advocate of the Republic of Moldova called Armenia “an aggressor country”. 

The Vice President of the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia Hermine Naghdalyan appealed not to use the Pan-European Conference and the platform of the National Assembly of Armenia for spreading false information.

Aurelia Grigoriu tried to justify herself, saying that with her speech she wanted to note that all the conflicts should be settled in peaceful way.

The Lithuanian Ombudsman in his turn suggested the Moldovan representative to speak “on the Moldova’s frozen conflict and not touch upon the history of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict”.

In the framework of the Armenia’s chairmanship at the Committee of Ministers of the European Council, the Pan-European Conference “The European Standards of Rule of Law and the Scope of Discretion of Powers in the Member States of the Council of Europe” was held on July 3-4 at the National Assembly. The Conference was attended by about 80 representatives from 32 countries and international organizations.
