ArmInfo. Speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia Hovik Abrahamyan
has sent a letter to President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the
OSCE Joao Soares.

The press service of the National Assembly of Armenia reports that
Vice Speaker of the Milli Mejlis (Parliament) of Azerbaijan, the head
of the Azeri delegation to PA OSCE Bahar Muradova spoke on behalf
of PA OSCE during the opening of the 32nd plenary session of the
Inter-Parliamentary Assembly of the CIS.

The Speaker of the Armenian parliament says in the letter that during
the opening of the CIS Inter- Parliamentary Assembly, the head
of the Azeri delegation to OSCE PA made an inexplicable statement
on behalf of the OSCE PA instead of an opening speech and tried to
present distorted facts on the Karabakh conflict. It is inadmissible
that the MP representing one of the parties to the Karabakh conflict
uses the OSCE PA opening speech to spread a lie about Armenia and
Nagorno-Karabakh. The OSCE PA has always contributed to the Karabakh
peace process. It is proved by the balanced activity of Special
Representative of OSCE PA Chairman for Nagorno-Karabakh Goran
Lennmarker. "I consider such step of the OSCE PA representative
inadmissible and I hope that the Parliamentary Assembly will not
change its direction", he says.
