CE THINKS POLITICAL PRISONERS ARE THE MAIN PROBLEM OF AZERBAIJAN

Politics

”The political prisoners are the main problem of Azerbaijan. After the presidential elections no policeman was called to account for the violence committed towards Opposition representatives. Azerbaijan has no free and independent Mass Media. Press role must be increased”, PACE Spokesman on Azerbaijan Andreas Gross said.

Other CE members mentioned corruption and infringement of human rights in Azerbaijan. The spokesmen called to support Azerbaijan to be up to CE standards. Almost all those making speeches referred to Karabakhi conflict.

For the time being only Ukraine appeared in favour of Azerbaijan. Ukraine thinks Azerbaijan mainly carried out the CE commitments.

Russia’s representative Stotcki stated his friend Ilham Aliev knows well who and when in his country to grant amnesty. Mr. Stotcki thinks the report on Azerbaijan corresponds to the facts.
