    AZERBAIJAN'S MP LEFT FOR STRASBURG
    [June 18, 2005, 11:03:32]

    On June 18, members of the Azerbaijan parliament led by head of the
    permanent parliamentary delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the
    Council of Europe Samad Seyidov have left for Strasburg to participate
    in the PACE summer session. An assessment of Russia's honouring of
    its Council of Europe obligations and commitments and a report on
    the media and terrorism which calls on journalists to refrain from
    disseminating shocking terrorist images are among highlights of the
    summer session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe
    (PACE), which takes place in Strasbourg from 20 to 24 June 2005.

    Among the questions in agenda are highlights include a debate on the
    current situation in Kosovo, a joint debate on the functioning of
    democratic institutions in Azerbaijan , as well as a possible urgent
    debate on the constitutional reform process in Armenia . A second
    urgent debate has been proposed on follow-up to the Third Summit
    of the Council of Europe, with a statement by the Organisation's
    Secretary General Terry Davis.

    Following the recent proposal to create an "Asian Parliamentary
    Assembly" on the model of PACE, Pakistan National Assembly Speaker
    Chaudhry Amir Hussain and Philippines Congress Speaker Jose de Venecia
    - representing the 40-member Association of Asian Parliaments for
    Peace - will take the floor to elaborate on the initiative.

    Other invited guest speakers include the Prime Minister of Bosnia
    and Herzegovina Adnan Terzic, NATO Secretary General Jaap de Hoop
    Scheffer and EBRD President Jean Lemierre, who will take part in a
    debate on the Bank's contribution to economic development in central
    and eastern Europe.
