Yalcin Topcu said Armenia should openly declare that it will release the occupied Karabakh lands and recognize Kars treaty. Topcu said they did not show the minister the photos describing Khojaly genocide considering it may be regarded as impolite. Then one of the members of the party brought the photo of the children atrociously killed in Khojaly and showed to the journalists. Yalcin Topcu said the crime committed in Khojaly should be reflected in the protocols and protested against the mediation of Switzerland, which recognizes the so-called genocide and punished those who denied it. He noted that Azerbaijan should be necessarily informed about the process. Yalcin Topcu expressed his hope that the parliamentarians will not confirm the protocols.
