Secretary General of the Council of Europe Terry Davis welcomes the
willingness of the Armenian authorities to receive the CoE experts to
be sent to the region to study the state of cultural and historical
monuments.

"I welcome Armenia’s approach, which has nothing to conceal. The
experts will study and find out to what extent the accusations of
Azerbaijan are grounded. With the leadership of Azerbaijan I will
discuss the issue of Armenia’s accusations of destruction of Armenian
monuments in that country. Experts are not politicians, they will only
give assessment to the state of monuments," the Secertary General said.

Let us remind that connected with the demolition of Armenian
monuments in Old Jugha (Nakhijevan) Armenia had applied to the
Council of Europe, asking to send an observation mission to assess
the situation. Azerbaijan, in turn, claimed that the mission must
visit Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh, as well.

On August 29 Azerbaijan prevented the visit of the PACE delegation
headed by British MP Edward O’Hara to the region.

RA Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian informed that an agreement was
reached to organize the visit of the mission in the near future.
