Azerbaijan, Baku, May 22 / Trend M.Aliyev /
The Azerbaijani Parliament has denied reports in the Armenian media that during the Azerbaijani MPs visit to Yerevan, they visited the memorial to the victims of the so-called "Armenian genocide".
"Armenian media states that Azerbaijani MPs who are in Armenia to attend the 39th plenary session of the Parliamentary Assembly of Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC PA), which takes place from May 21 to 24 in Yerevan, allegedly visited the monument to the victims of the "Armenian genocide" and laid a wreath. We contacted our MPs and it is absolutely not true, because at that time they were in Georgia," MP Mubariz Gurbanli said at the parliamentary meeting.
He said the participation of Azerbaijani deputies in a meeting being held in Yerevan was necessary, since the presidency of the BSEC PA goes from Armenia to Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijani MPs Asaf Hajiyev, Musa Guliyev, and Zhalya Aliyeva attend the 39th meeting of the BSEC PA plenary session.
