Azerbaijan, Baku, Sept. 3 / Trend K. Zarbaliyeva /
The decision on political prisoners in Azerbaijan made by the PACE is
biased, the head of the Azerbaijani delegation in the Assembly said.
"I think that the CE realizes this issue," chairman of the Azerbaijani
parliamentary committee on international and inter-parliamentary
relations, the head of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE Samad
Seyidov told media. "Azerbaijan has strong international relations. We
have made proposals."
PACE rapporteur on political prisoners in Azerbaijan Christoph
Strasser will visit the country this year. Strasser will assess the
situation with political prisoners in the country and prepare a
report.
Seyidov said that Azerbaijan dynamically cooperated and will cooperate
with PACE.
"We will raise this issue at the PACE October session," he said. "This
issue on Azerbaijan is not expected to be directly discussed at the
autumn session. But Azerbaijan is an integral part of the European
area. Therefore, we are interested in the processes taking place in
Europe. We raise the issues concerning the Nagorno-Karabakh at each
session. From this point of view, the forthcoming session will not be
an exception. The delegation will speak, present different documents
and hold meetings at the session. Our opinion will be heard."
