"Prosecutor general" of so-called "Nagorno-Karabakh Republic" rejected
membership of International Association of Prosecutors
17 September 2010 [18:55] - Today.Az
Admitting a "prosecutor general" from a so-called "Nagorno-Karabakh
republic" to individual membership of the International Association of
Prosecutors has been removed from the association's agenda after a
protest lodged by Azerbaijan, the press service of the Justice
Ministry reported on Sept. 15.
"Due to strong protest by Azerbaijan, the issue of admitting a
'prosecutor general' from a 'Nagorno-Karabakh republic' to the
membership of the International Association of Prosecutors has been
removed from the agenda of the Executive Committee [of the the
association]," said the report.
"Collections of documents and resolutions of the UN, OSCE, Council of
Europe and the EU on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict were distributed
among the members of the committee. The head of our delegation
provided extensive information about the reasonable position of
Azerbaijan in the conflict," the report continued. "As a result, a
decision was made that corresponds to our national interests."
Hague (Netherlands) hosted the 15th annual conference of the
International Association of Prosecutors from Sept. 4 to 10.
General meetings and meetings of the executive committee were attended
by over 400 representatives from around the world, including the heads
of prosecutors' offices, judges and other judicial bodies and
law-enforcement agencies.
Azerbaijan cooperates with authoritative international organizations,
including the International Association of Prosecutors, which has
consultative status at the UN Economic and Social Council and brings
together more than 100 countries. Azerbaijan has for years been
represented in the executive committee, the governing body of the
association.
As a member of the association, the authority of which is increasing,
Azerbaijan has been given the considerable opportunity of representing
the European continent on its executive committee. As a result of
competitive elections, the Azerbaijani candidate, head of the
Anti-Corruption Office under the Prosecutor General's Office Kamran
Aliyev, was elected a member of the executive committee.
