PACE Chairman abuses authority

PACE Chairman, Turkey’s representative Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, who regularly forgets what agency he represents, has made another biased Azerbaijani-Turkish statement.
Hurriyet reports that, following his meetings in Stockholm, Çavuşoğlu left for Göteborg to take part in a conference. Göran Lindblad, Chairman of the Sweden-Turkey parliamentary friendship commission and a member of the Moderate Party, participated in the conference as well.
The PACE Chairman pointed out that Turkey is developing relations with both the West and the East. He added that Turkey is willing to normalize relations with all its neighbors. The most important condition to improvement of relations with Armenia is its vacating “the annexed Azeri lands.” If Armenia meets with condition, Turkey will improve its relations with that state, Çavuşoğlu said. He stressed Turkey has always supported Azerbaijan and will go on doing so.
In his turn, Göran Lindblad, who is an advocate of Turkey’s arguments, spoke of the parliamentary elections to be held in Sweden on September 19 and pointed out that the left bloc, which pushed the Armenian Genocide bill through Parliament on March 11, are willing to submit the Armenian Genocide bill to the European Union (EU) and the U.N. They have reached an agreement and want the topic of the Armenian Genocide be included in school textbooks. To thwart their initiatives, Göran Lindblad called for voting for the Moderate Party and other right-ring parties.
