ArmInfo. The UN has suppressed another attempt of anti-Armenian
propaganda by Azerbaijan.
The press-service of the Armenian Foreign Ministry reports that the UN
General Assembly Third Committee has recently continued the debates
on "the Rights of the Child". On October 16 Armenian and Azerbaijani
representatives came out with speeches at the Committee. The Azeri
representative deviated from the basic topic of the debates and
decided to dedicate some part of his speech to the description of
"occupied territories by Armenia", "refugees", "Khojaly massacre"
by using the whole complex of Azerbaijani slander in his speech.
However, the speech of the Azeri delegate was interrupted by the
chairman of the sitting, who said that the Azeri party excessively
used his time and called on him to finish his speech. The confused
representative of Azerbaijan tried to continue his speech, however,
his microphone was shut off.
Taking advantage of the right to respond, the Armenian delegate
pointed out that the international community once again witnessed the
fact that Azerbaijan is trying to conduct anti-Armenian propaganda
regardless of the agenda. The Armenian delegate touched upon the
terror and aggression by Azerbaijan against the Armenian population,
as a result of which dozens of thousands of women and children became
refugees, thousands of children became orphans and disabled.
