YEREVAN. – Members of Armenian delegation at PACE publicly criticizes PACE president Pedro Agramunt for his pro-Azerbaijani position, head of the delegation Hermine Naghdalyan told reporters on Tuesday.

“Of course, we cannot re-educate 70-year-old man and change his positon. He is a well-known politician with a rich biography. But our requirement was somewhat different. We told him, when you were a deputy, you could freely express your opinion. Now your words express a collective opinion from 47 countries of the Council of Europe, " Naghdalyan emphasized.

 According to her, Agramunt neither responded to the accusations and criticism of the Armenian side, nor put forward counter-arguments.
