SULEYMANOVA DOES NOT MEET INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS
The organization for protection of Gurgen Margaryan's rights has made a
statement of protest against nominating Azerbaijani Ombudsman Elmira
Suleymanova to the post of the Council of Europe Commissioner on Human
Rights.
The statements says in part, `Not mentioning the personal characteristics of
Elmira Suleymanova and the assessment of her activities in Azerbaijan. We
would like to attract attention to some aspects of her activities as regards
the Armenian-Azeri conflict. The institute of Ombudsman served as a
mouthpiece for the line pursued by the Azerbaijani authorities supporting
anti-Armenian rhetoric, xenophobia and racism both within the country and
beyond its borders.'
The organization for protection of Gurgen Margaryan's rights is also
discontent with the position the Azeri Ombudsman holds on Ranil Safarov's
case. That is why the inclusion of Elmira Suleymanova in the list of
candidates for the post of Council of Europe Commissioner on Human Rights is
not honorable for an organization like the Council of Europe.
