“The consular authorities of the Republic of Azerbaijan refused to grant me a visa. Although I am the head of the French delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe and, and Vice President of the same institution, I will not participate in the meetings of the Standing Committee and the Office of the PACE that will take place Thursday and Friday in Baku,” Mr. Rouquet said in a statement.
René Rouquet is a member of the “Circle of Friendship” with the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. He has on many occasions called for recognition of Artsakh’s independence.
