On June 28 Speaker Tigran Torosyan met with Terry Davis, Secretary
General of the Council of Europe to discuss the legislative work that
followed the constitutional reform, the problems of adoption of the
Electoral Code, reports the Department of Public Relations of the
National Assembly.

During the meeting the aggressive policy of the Azerbaijani delegation
in the PACE was discussed. The members of the Azerbaijani delegation
use the chair of the PACE to make allegations and set forward
false accusations against Armenia. In particular, this time the
question of fires in Nagorno Karabakh and adjacent areas was raised
by the Azerbaijani members of parliament during the discussion of
all the issues. Mr. Torosyan presented the reality, emphasizing
that two weeks ago the NKR government called on the Office of the
Personal Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office to conduct
a monitoring, assess the situation and refute false accusations:
the Azerbaijanis make a political show in Strasburg. In such a
situation it becomes impossible to prevent the Armenian delegation
from countering. Tigran Torosyan proposed making efforts to improve
this unhealthy situation. Mr. Davis promised to make efforts.

During the meeting they touched upon an interview with the reporter
of Yerkir Media TV with the Secretary General of the Council of Europe
on June 8. Mr. Davis explained that the reporter tries to push him to
make condemning statements, particularly with regard to the economic
blockade of Armenia by Turkey, he does not have necessary information
to do it. Mr. Davis asked for the text of the interview.

During the meeting of Speaker Tigran Torosyan, the head of the
Azerbaijani delegation Samad Seyidov, and Lord Russell Johnston,
reporter of the CoE Committee on Nagorno Karabakh, the time of the
visit of the ad-hoc committee for the application of Resolution 1416
on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict in the framework of the of the OSCE
Minsk Group was arranged. The PACE Bureau confirmed the staff of the
committee, proposed by Mr. Torosyan in spring. It includes the leaders
of the delegations of Armenia and Azerbaijan, an oppositionist member
of parliament from each delegation, reporters on both countries,
the chair of the committee Lord Russell Jonston, Leo Platvoet, the
author of the regional report on the missing people.

Considering the circumstance that a meeting of the PACE Monitoring
Commission will be held in Yerevan in early October, and a meeting
of the Political Committee will take place in Baku in mid-November,
it was arranged to hold the meeting of the ad-hoc committee on Nagorno
Karabakh within the last week of October.

The visit of the ad-hoc committee and meetings in Armenia, Nagorno
Karabakh and Azerbaijan will be cognitive. The chair of the ad-hoc
committee proposed holding a seminar with parliamentarians, reports
the Department of Public Relations of the National Assembly.
