"Armenia is ready to voice its position on any document, presented by
the Azerbaijani side in the PACE bureau", said head of the Armenian
delegation in PACE David Arutyunyan.

Stressing that the bureau will have to say the final word, Arutyunyan
added that with the exception of the adequate presentation of Armenia’s
position, the Armenian side will not take any steps.

When asked of the report regarding establishment of democratic
institutions in the country and possible application of sanctions,
Arutyunyan refused to comment on it, noting that the Armenian
delegation takes due steps which reduce possible application of
sanctions towards the country to minimum.

"I consider that no sanctions will be applied towards Armenia",
concluded he.

Notably, the summer session of PACE will be held on June 25-26 during
which the sides will hear reports on establishment of democratic
institutions in Armenia. Moreover, Azerbaijan intends to present the
issue of the occupational policy of Armenia for discussion.
