Azerbaijan, Baku, Dec.21 / Trend M. Aliyev /
It is necessary to pass a law declaring persons visiting the occupied territories without Azerbaijan's permission for it, MP Ganira Pashayeva said today at the parliamentary meeting.
"This law should apply not only to politicians, but also culture figures," she added.
According to Pashayeva, it is important that appeal, which will be sent to the leadership of the European Parliament in connection with Tomasz Poręba, was also addressed to all European parliamentarians. This appeal separately should be directed to the leadership and Polish MPs.
Pashayeva urged all Azerbaijani Diaspora organizations to send protest letters regarding Tomasz Poręba in the European countries' parliaments.
MEP, the keynote speaker on Armenia Tomasz Poręba, is on a visit to Nagorno-Karabakh from Dec.19, where he is holding meetings with the leadership of the unrecognized republic and discussing issues concerning the resolution of the Karabakh conflict, the situation in the region and bilateral relations, the Armenian media outlets reported.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the United Nations Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
