    Azerbaijan applies to international organizations for inclusion of
    Armenian votes into voters' list

    [ 20 Jan 2008 13:40 ]

    Azerbaijan's Central Election Commission has sent a repeated appeal
    to international organizations for inclusion of Nagorno
    Karabakh-based Azerbaijanis of Armenian origin into the voters' list.

    Mazahir Panahov, Chairman of the CEC, said Azerbaijani citizens of
    Armenian origin are entitled to enjoy the right to vote and
    Azerbaijan is ready to ensure their rights.
    `We decided to resort to international organizations for inclusion of
    Azeri citizens of Armenian origin into voters' list. However,
    international organizations seem passive,' he added.
    He added that Azerbaijan has done the best to ensure Internally
    Displaced Persons' right to vote.
    `It is problematic to do this as they have no permanent place. IDPs
    have to be returned to their homelands,' he added. /APA/
