22/06/2023 | 19:44:35 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2)   Mister President, Today I am taking the floor to ensure that no one claims "how could we know?" in the future. Due to the obvious inaction by many governments, civil society groups and political circles in the democratic Europe, the authoritarian regime of Azerbaijan very openly and almost daily creates conditions for the Armenian people in Nagorno-Karabakh, making civilian life there impossible. Today, 120 000 Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh... 26/01/2023 | 20:07:27 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Mr. President, I want to make some statements of facts, which are important to know regarding the situation around Nagorno Karabakh.

In such an environment, one may observe a lack of any expectations from the Council of Europe among our citizens. I am wondering why we have ended up here and invite you to reflect together. Part of the reason in my assessment is that the Council of Europe designed to be a bastion of truly democratic values and freedoms has become to tolerate a certain transformation of some of its member States... 23/01/2023 | 17:38:41 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Mr President: As you well know, for more than 40 days Nagorno Karabakh has been under siege by Azerbaijan. For the entire period of its membership in our organisation, Azerbaijan both in its domestic and foreign politics has been guided by political violence and war as tools and means of state policy. The Azerbaijani government has continuously pursued a politics of radical racism and ethnic cleansings against "the others" and specifically...
