APA reports that MP Chingiz Ganizadeh said that this criticism is led by Bundestagâ€™s Green Party faction and ombudsman of Germany, as well as some persons in Azerbaijan.

MP Fazail Ibrahimli criticized Germany and said that Armenian lobby is behind of this campaign.

Deputy Chairman of the New Azerbaijan Party (YAP) Ali Ahmadov said that some forces in Germany pursue tactics against Azerbaijan and German ambassador to Azerbaijan is among them.

Speaker Asadov said that AZN 1500 for one square meter was given to the owners of houses which were removed and this amount allows building or repairing a new house.

YAPâ€™s deputy executive secretary Siyavush Novruzov said that the matter is not Germany: â€œGerman ambassador said that he couldnâ€™t remain indifferent to the removal of houses in Baku. How can he be indifferent to the occupied territories of Azerbaijan, refugees and internally displaced persons?â€

Novruzov said that there is an Islamphobia in Germany and he brought photos to the parliament in proof of it and demonstrated photos: â€œThey put a sign of ban on the mosques. Let them come and learn tolerance in Azerbaijanâ€.

YAPâ€™s deputy executive secretary Mubariz Gurbanli condemned the German ambassador to Azerbaijan for his interference in internal affairs of the country and said that it is contrary to the international conventions.
