"Madam President, this is not really a point of order, but new events are constantly taking place, and I was obliged to take a decision on Friday because there was nobody who could answer my questions. On Friday morning, the Armenian Ambassador to the European Union, Mr Chitechian, invited me to attend the funerals last week of those murdered in the Armenian Parliament. Having checked to see whether I was able to attend, I then took the decision to attend these funerals and I tried to inform the Presidency and the Secretariat of my decision. Unfortunately, it was between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. on Friday afternoon and there was no-one I could speak to. So, I faxed you a letter to tell you that I would be attending in a personal capacity, but would nevertheless represent the European Parliament to some extent at these funerals. I was therefore present at the funerals and at the official ceremonies held in the memory of those murdered in Armenia. I wanted to inform you of this, Madam President."@en1
