Azerbaijani Parliament recognizes Khojaly genocide

He stated that the Parliament had adopted decision not a law on relevant issues in 1990-1995, APA reports.

"Some announce it to gain additional points and others because they don’t understand it. We cannot raise the issue again in Parliament after 15 years amid world-wide recognition of Khojaly genocide. It is a pity that such groundless ideas occur. Azerbaijani Parliament has recognized the Khojaly tragedy as a genocide," he said.

Ziyafet Asgarov noted that after the debate today, the Parliament will adopt a statement addressed to the world community. He stressed that they work regularly for the recognition of the Khojaly genocide in the parliaments of world countries.
