We expect an explanation from Moldovan parliamentary advocate Aurelia Grigoriu in connection with her provocative statements, said Director Anatolie Munteanu of the Center for Human Rights of Moldova, OMEGA News Agency reports.  

“No one can make some comments on important matters such as frozen conflicts, and in an inappropriate time, inappropriate occasion, in that,” Munteanu stressed.   

As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, during last week’s international forum that was held in Armenia’s capital city Yerevan, Grigoriu said: “Armenia has occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan’s territories committing genocide against Azerbaijanis.”

This statement caused a negative reaction in Armenia and in Moldova, alike. The statement was condemned and it was considered a provocation aimed at exacerbating the situation.    

In addition, the Armenian community of Moldova informed about its intention to formally demand from the Moldovan parliament the remove Aurelia Grigoriu from office.
