The speech of the former Director General of Political Questions of the
Council of Europe Hans-Peter Furrer caused discontent in Azerabijan.

APA European Bureau reports that touching upon the topic of conflicts,
Mr. Furrer noted that Russia is held responsible for the South
Ossetia and Abkhazia conflicts, while in case of Nagorno Karabakh
"Armenia started the war to release the Armenians living on the
mentioned territories."

Furrer declared that exhale of local Azerbaijani population served
the same purpose.

The director of Baku school Ilgar Mammadov objecting to these opinions
told Mr. Furrer it would be better to gather thorough information
before speaking of the causes of the conflict.
