Armenia’s claims that allegedly Secretary General of the Council of Europe Thorbjørn Jagland has voiced an initiative to cease Azerbaijan's membership in the Council of Europe, is nonsense, Spokesperson of the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, Daniel Hoeltgen told Trend.
“This is nonsense,” he said.
