VIDEO: I Have a Feeling of Déjà Vu Today, Says Zohrapyan Reflecting on Their Visit to Baku

They can stop the session right now, not allow this meeting to take place where absurd questions are discussed. This was stated by former MP Naira Zohrapyan during a press conference at the protest in front of the Sports and Concert Complex, where the meetings of the Euronest Parliamentary Assembly committees are taking place.

It is worth noting that a protest is being held in front of the Sports and Concert Complex, demanding that discussions about the issues of Armenian prisoners of war take precedence. “The Armenian government should set a precondition that until the last soldier is home, such a desecration should not take place in Yerevan,” Zohrapyan said.

At the same time, Zohrapyan recalled that years ago, she had visited Baku, where she participated in the same Euronest meeting with her colleagues. “Today, I feel a sense of déjà vu. We participated with our heads held high. When Ilham Aliyev stood in the hall addressing the Armenian delegation, saying that 'here are the fascists who have desecrated my ancestors' graves,' I won't describe it, just imagine what our delegation did; in five minutes, we turned the Milli Mejlis into chaos and clamor. We demanded that even when we are in Baku, you do not have the right to insult Armenia, you do not have the right to use any improper statements about Artsakh or its people,” Zohrapyan emphasized.

Aliyev was present, along with Azerbaijani delegates, and I personally distributed books in the Milli Mejlis to prove that Azerbaijanis were lying about the Khojaly genocide. In Baku, we felt like deputies of a victorious country; today, just a few steps away from us sit the brothers, cousins, and relatives of those who killed our sons with Bayraktars, those who decapitated and tortured prisoners of war,” Zohrapyan stated.
