The authorities do not have alternatives to keep good relations with international organizations.

A delegation from the Council of Europe's Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT) visited Azerbaijan from September 22 to October 3 as part of a periodic review of the country. This was the first mission since the CPT delegation was denied entry to the country last summer.

The proposal to grant the President the authority to pardon not only those convicted but also individuals under investigation is being put forward in the Milli Majlis.

The 29th session of the Conference of the Parties (COP29) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which began in Baku on November 11, is ongoing and will continue until November 22. During this time, international organizations have continued their calls to Azerbaijan regarding human rights issues.

One of the fundamental rights that must be upheld for internally displaced persons (IDPs) forced from their homes due to Armenian aggression is the right to housing. The right to housing is constitutionally granted to Azerbaijani citizens, and according to this key document, no one may be unlawfully deprived of their residence[1]. The Constitution also guarantees citizens the right to live in safety. However, the situation differs for citizens who have been forcibly displaced from Karabakh. Following the liberation of Karabakh from Armenian occupation, priority should have been given, under national legislation, to recognizing the housing (residential) rights of individuals previously residing in those territories (or, if deceased, their heirs). Unfortunately, this has not happened.
