The Armenian community in Sweden swiftly blocked Azeri efforts to
discuss a Karabakh resolution at the Swedish parliament.
The Armenian community in Sweden sent a letter to the parliament
demanding to cancel the discussions. They said that the Azeri version
contained false reports about refugees and claims about the events
in Khojaly and was another effort by Azerbaijan to falsify history
and continue anti-Armenian propaganda, Asbarez reports.
The effort was led by Swedish parliament member Mehmet Kaplan,
according to whom the Swedish parliament would be informed about the
“realities.”
Addressing a gathering of Sweden’s Congress of Azerbaijanis, Kaplan
said that effort in parliament was prompted by Swedish media reports
following the June Kazan meeting between the presidents of Armenia and
Azerbaijan. He claimed that media presented “incorrect” information
when reporting that Azerbaijan wanted to resolve the conflict through
military means.
