ArmInfo.Azerbaijan is trying to impose the medieval rule of law and practices to civilized humanity in 21st century, said in an interview to ArmInfo correspondents the Armenian Parliament Vice President and the Observer mission head of Armenian Parliament on NKR constitutional referendum Eduard Sharmazanov while speaking about Baku's decision on claiming internationally wanted the European Parliament members (EP) Frank Engel (Luxemburg), Eleni Teoharus (Cyprus) and Jaromir Stetina (Czech Republic) for observing the referendum in Nagorno Karabakh.
"Such measures cause no other reactions but only laughter and misunderstanding. But I have to note that the penitentiary steps will not bring the expected to Azerbaijan. Such politics of Azerbaijan increase the interest towards Artsakh and increase the number of those who wish to visit Artsakh. The evidence of my words is the fact that over 100 international observers where watching the constitutional referendum in NKR", resumed Sharmazanov.
To note, the Prosecutor General of Azerbaijan opened case for "illegal visit" multiple times the Nagorno Karabakh aiming at participation in February 20 referendum participation as observers. "The propaganda of separatism , illegal participation in activities organized in those territories and pretending an illegal formation to be a sovereign republic are also attached to the European Parliamentarians: "The Court decided to arrest F.Egnel, E.Teoharus and J.Stetina. They are internationally wanted by "Interpol"".
The constitutional referendum in Nagorno-Karabakh took place on February 20. The project of reforms including transition from a semi-presidential form of government to presidential was adopted as the 87% were for.
