/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Azerbaijani MPs think it’s necessary to discuss
the current developments in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement
process.

`Certain changes occurred in the negotiations. Therefore, holding
hearings in Azerbaijani parliament regarding has become a necessity,’
said Panah Huseyn, member of Musavat group of MPs which represent
opposition in the parliament.

`The Nagorno Karabakh conflict was discussed in the parliament
once. It is quite possible to organize another debate,’ said Aydin
Mirzazade, member of the Political Council of the ruling New
Azerbaijan Party and member of Azerbaijani delegation to PACE.

The Chairman of opposition Democratic Reforms Party of Azerbaijan,
Asim Mollazadeh, supposes that hearings are possible in case of
progress in the negotiation process. `Holding hearings on urgent
issues is a normal phenomenon,’ he said.

According to the leader of opposition Great Establishment Party, Fazil
Gazanfaroglu, the source of Azerbaijani public’s indifference
concerning the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is the parliament. `The MPs
have repeatedly raised the issue of holding at least closed hearing on
Nagorno Karabakh. However, it yielded no results and the hearings were
not organized. The parliament of Azerbaijan should express its
attitude about the ongoing process,’ he said, Trend Azeri news agency
reports.
