parliament, other officials, and also families of the people who
have missing.
The reporter informed, that as a result of occupation of the
Nagorno-Karabakh region of Azerbaijan by Armenia and adjacent 7
regions, 4604 Azerbaijanis have missed. The report reflects the fact,
that many of them are alive and secretly contained in territory of
the occupied Nagorno Karabakh and in Armenia. The report in detail
narrates about the problem with which Azerbaijan has faced, including
about creation in Nagorno Karabakh of the so-called "government"
of a separatist regime, the armed forces of Armenia located at the
occupied Azerbaijan lands.
The report notes that the Council of Europe recognizes territorial
integrity of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia, emphasizing that
discussion of the question at all does not mean recognition in this
or that form of Nagorno Karabakh, South Ossetia and Abkhazia, where
today there are conflicts. In the document, it is stated that Armenia
till now ignores four resolutions of Security Council of the United
Nations on unconditional liberation of the Azerbaijan territories.
These Resolutions have recognized the territorial integrity and
sovereignty of Azerbaijan, the report underlines.
