Baku. Ulkar Gasimova – APA. "Armenia’s intention to sue the Public
Television is very wrong. All Azerbaijani people knew the numbers
of voting.
If Armenia’s number had not been known and the people had been
unaware of it, Azerbaijan would not have sent 43 votes to Armenian
representatives. This is the official information," chief of public
affairs department of Public Television and Radio Broadcasting Company
Tahir Mammadov told APA. ITV official expressed his confidence that
the court would properly assess Armenia’s step.
"If they do this, the court will properly assess their action. Their
action is ridiculous. This is not the political meaning. Those 43 votes
were not publicized because they did not make up 1 percent," he said.
