The recent scandalous revelations linked with Azerbaijan prove that there can be no normal interaction with Aerbaijan as a state, and above all no EU agreements with it, MEP from Luxemburg Frank Engel told ARMENPRESS commenting on the recent loud developments over Azerbaijan, particularly the “Azerbaijani Laundromat” corruption scandal which the European Parliament will investigate.
He added that Azerbaijan does everything to leave Artsakh out of negotiations. “They understand very well that the full participation of Artsakh in the negotiations will shake the false ideas that they have raised for years”, Artsakh’s Foreign Minister said.
“The next Armenia-Diaspora Forum will come as a pan-Armenian discussion of the “4 million Armenia” program and the real start of its implementation. This is what we should agree upon here and right now”, President Sargsyan said.
Serzh Sargsyan added that there can be no peace unless the leadership of Azerbaijan puts up with the existence of the principles put forward by the international community. “We are convinced that for the preservation of the international peace and prevention of conflicts it’s important to implement the human rights, including the one about the equality of people and right to self-determination, sine almost in all the cases the limitation of that right creates political crisis”, the Armenian President said.
Paylan is in Armenia to participate in the Armenia-Diaspora 6th conference.

“Although the Baku authorities fanatically deny the impact of growing Shiite radical Islam in the country, I want to state that the Azerbaijani prisons are full of radical Islamists. And there are also more Islamists in freedom, they are even representatives of law enforcement agencies. I have seen all this with my own eyes and I personally followed the Islamists. They were everywhere in the prison and were able to freely move”, Lapshin said.
“For us it is important to have a neighbor committed to certain principles, but unfortunately, we do not see any positive development on this path”, the Artsakh Ombudsman said.
