UNICEF's Executive Board held annual meeting on June 1-4 at the UN headquarters in New York. Permanent representative of Armenia to UN, Ambassador Karen Nazaryan, as well as representative of Azerbaijan were invited to participate.

In his statement, Ambassador Nazaryan emphasized Azeri Ambassador’s use of inadmissible formulations, accusing the latter of attempt to politicize the discussions.

At subsequent discussions, the Secretariat deprived the Azerbaijani Ambassador of the right of reply, which proves that the UN has long been tired of Azeri propaganda.

Meanwhile, Azeri media circulated reports on UN Armenian representative’s attempt at misinforming the meeting participants, with Azeri diplomats “exposing the lie” of Armenian side.
