YEREVAN. - To speak about development of democracy in Azerbaijan is futile, said MP from Prosperous Armenia party Naira Zohrabyan to a press conference on Monday.

According to her, the lag of Azerbaijan in maintenance of democratic institutions is openly marked in European community.

“One of the international meetings attended by Azerbaijani MPs openly stressed that the country is facing a serious setback in democracy building. One could not expect something different from a country that several years ago adopted amendments to the constitution and removed the two terms limitation for the president. It is futile to talk about democracy and pluralism in a country that gradually turns into sultanate,” said Zohrabyan.
