YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 24, ARMENPRESS. It is very troubling that Azerbaijani authorities have initiated criminal proceedings against MEPs who were in Nagorno Karabakh as referendum observers, MEP Soraya Post said in an interview with “Armenpress”.

“This is not helpful at all and is not how mature countries conduct their business. We will certainly have a thorough discussion in the European Parliament on how to proceed. This will not stand”, Soraya Post said.

Azerbaijan declared MEPs Frank Engel (Luxembourg), Jaromír Štětina (Czech Republic) and Eleni Theocharous (Cyprus) as internationally wanted. They visited Karabakh to take part in the Constitutional referendum as international observers.
