Naira Zohrabyan: Azerbaijan Was Directly Thrown on the Asphalt in Strasbourg

The head of the National Assembly's Standing Committee on Human Rights, Naira Zohrabyan, wrote on her Facebook page: "In Strasbourg, we discussed the report on political prisoners in Azerbaijan, and our neighboring country was thrown on the asphalt in the PACE session. Azerbaijani Samed organized a tearful show, questioning what right the Armenian MPs have to speak at all, and who the Council of Europe is to discuss Azerbaijan.

However, the show was gloriously failed; Azerbaijan was directly thrown on the asphalt, smacked against the walls—remembers reaching from caviar to the Azerbaijani corrupt laundering machine. In the end, with a significant majority of votes, a resolution regarding political prisoners was adopted. For the first time in many years, Azerbaijan failed to disrupt the report on political prisoners. Azerbaijani caviar, at least for this moment, has ceased to be a factor in the Council of Europe. And that is a fact."
