/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Republican Party of Armenia, Prosperous Armenia
and Orinats Yerkir issued a statement in reference to PACE President
Movlud Chavushoglu’s interview to APA Azeri news agency. "Some of PACE
President’s comments question his impartiality in Karabakh issue. PACE
President has a wrong perception of the nature and details of the
issue, as well as of negotiation progress concerning the problem in
question," the joint statement says.

According to the statement, Movlud Chavushoglu’s statement is seriously
questioning the authority of his PACE presidency from the viewpoint
of his ability to play a positive role in the settlement of regional
problems. "The interview proves that only OSCE MG is authorised to
conduct Karabakh talks, and any initiative which goes beyond OSCE
MG format will only complicate and harm the peaceful settlement of
Karabakh conflict," the statement says.

Given the abovementioned facts, Armenian coalition parties urge
RA NA speaker to clarify with PACE President the credibility of the
interview in question and demand explanations, also asking Chavushoglu
to specify if his words should be regarded as official PACE position.

If necessary, the issue of suspension of PACE Armenian delegation
activities during Movlud Chavushoglu’s presidency should also be
discussed, the joint statements stresses.
