Chairman of the RF State Duma Negatively Assesses Decision of the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry

YEREVAN, MAY 31, ARMENPRESS: “We are against making such decision with which the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry recognized 5 members of the Russian State Duma “Persona non Grata” for the implementation of observing mission in the NK elections,” chairman of the RF State Duma said today at a press conference in Yerevan followed after the CSTO PA session. He reminded that more than 100 foreign observers were conducting observing mission in the NK parliamentary elections and pointed out that the parliamentarians of the State Duma were in the staff of non-official delegation. “We negatively assess such decision of the Azerbaijani foreign ministry,” Grizlov said.

According to him, it is a very sensible issue. “Currently negotiations are in process with the participation of the OSCE Minsk Group. Clear steps are being undertaken for the settlement of the issue. An opportunity has been created to regulate the issue,” Grizlov said.
