Baku, Fineko/abc.az. The European Parliament plans to debate a
resolution in connection with pardon of officer Ramil Safarov in
Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijan's representative to Euronest Parliamentary Assembly Elkhan
Suleymanov applied to the European Parliament's members with an appeal
to show once more that they are members of the House of Freedom &
Integrity, and not double standards and inaccuracies.
"I urge you to vote, on Thursday the 13th of September, at 4 pm,
against the Resolution on the Case of Ramil Safarov, as an inaccurate,
incomplete and unfair act," Suleymanov said.
He pointed out that the selection for this Strasbourg Parliamentary
session of a subject for Rule 122 Urgency Resolutions that does not,
in fact, fall within the competency of this Rule: the case of Ramil
Safarov.
"Indeed, it may seem as a problematic case and, indeed, there are
some who do not agree with the motivations of the parties involved.
Nonetheless, there is nothing in this case that falls within the
scope of Rule 122 of the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament.
Finally, there is no breach of the rule of law. All was done in full
respect of the law and to the letter of the law. There can be no doubt,
agree or not with the decision, the law is the law. Therefore, while
the European Parliament can - or more accurately - some members may
disagree, it should first and foremost follow its own internal rules
and regulations accurately," Suleymanov said.
