Trustworthiness of Agramunt questioned at PACE
The trustworthiness of President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) Pedro Agramunt was questioned at a meeting of the Assembly’s spring session on Monday.
Most of the Assembly members protested Agramunt’s recent visit to Syria and his meeting with Bashar al-Assad there. The deputies demanded his early resignation, AzVision.az reported.

Agramunt, in turn, stated that his visit to Syria was a wrong step. “Let me say that this visit was a wrong step, and, given its results, I recognize this,” he added.

However, the PACE president was forced to interrupt his speech and left the meeting hall as the deputies did not calm down and continued protesting him.

The meeting was continued by PACE Vice-President, Chairman of the European Conservatives Group Gale Roger.
