Mentioning the Karabakh conflict all the time Azerbaijan issues an
ultimatum to the CoE asking either to settle the conflict in favor
of Azerbaijan or to close their eyes to the problems in their
country. Armen Roustamyan represented his opinion in the PACE
discussions about the referendum in Montenegro.
Congratulating Montenegro on the victory Mr. Roustamyan mentioned that
the Karabakh conflict would not exist now if Azerbaijan had accepted
the results of the referendum in NKR 15 years ago and had not tried
"to suppress the call of the blood". According to the Armenian deputy,
there is only one way to settle the Karabakh conflict – to respect
the right of self-determination of the Karabakh people.
By the way, Montenegro which gained independence only a few months ago
already has pretensions of joining the European family and becoming
the 47th member of the CoE. It is noteworthy that no Azeri deputy
had registered to make a speech in connection with the issue.
