Hasanguliyev said the economic assessment of Europe’s migration crisis was discussed at the Committee on Economy and Security Committee. After representative of the International Migration Service Dumond made his speech, the Armenian delegation member said if the EU offers help, the Armenians will made their contribution to this work.

Hasanguliyev raised his objection to this statement and said, “I first thought the Armenian representative would leave the audience. That’s what I said at the beginning of my speech. I went on to mentioned that over a million Azerbaijanis became refugees and IDPs because of Armenia, who, backed by Russia, invaded 20 percent of Azerbaijani territory. This country has not fulfilled the UN Security Council resolutions, harming the peace settlement in the Azerbaijan territories they hold under occupation and seeking to maintain the status quo.

Furthermore, Armenia is the only country that, despite cooperating with NATO, does not support Ukraine’s territorial integrity, alongside Russia and North Korea. Armenia is an occupier pursuing aggressive policy. I said that the Armenian representative has no moral right to speak on this subject here. And at the last meeting, I raised this issue. I once suggested to dimiss Armenians from the audience. I also suggested that just like the cooperation with Crimea was stopped after its annexation by Russia, cooperation with Armenia also must be stopped," he said.

He added that after his speech, the Armenian representative began to raise his voice: "The majority of those present in the audience came up to me during the break and said that I was right. They said that the Armenian representative behaved very rudely. This was the first time I had seen that Armenian. It is evident he had a mental problem. Even the European Parliament representative and others told me that there was no need to pay attention. So Armenia once again was exposed during the 61 session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly," he said.
