Baku-APA. The member of the Estonian Parliament Kristiina Ojuland
said that Ramil Safarov extradition to Azerbaijan and his pardoning
were carried out in accordance with international laws.
APA reports quoting to TEAS.
"The ALDE Group in the European Parliament decided not sign the
resolution on the case of Ramil Safarov, since the Azerbaijani
authorities have not violated international law. Unfortunately,
there it has aggravated the relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan
and hindered progress towards resolution of the conflict over
Nagorno-Karabakh", Kristiina Ojuland said. The member of the Estonian
parliament also stressed that the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh and
seven surrounding regions is the internationally recognised territory
of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and that should also be the basis for
the position of the EU. The absence of any results after 20 years of
work indicates that the Minsk Group needs a reshuffle.
According to her in order to find a balance in the whole negotiation
process, France should be replaced by the EU, which has a historic
chance for resolving this frozen conflict.
Kristiina Ojuland said that the European Parliament stays committed
to the developments in the South-Caucasus and its members are
aware of the huge potential Azerbaijan has. She also stressed that a
constructive partnership between Brussels and Baku entails reciprocity
and commitment to shared values.
