Civil forum in support of Ukraine
Baku/16.02.22/Turan: "Expressing the common opinion of the Azerbaijani society, we declare solidarity with friendly Ukraine in this difficult time for it". This was stated in the resolution of the First Ukraine Support Forum held in Baku on February 15 on the initiative of the Azerbaijani Platform to Support Ukraine for Democracy.
Preventing war in Ukraine and "curbing Russia's aggressive policies" should be the main task of the international community.
Besides, the international community along with Ukraine should also support the efforts of Moldova, Georgia and Azerbaijan in the fight against separatism which is the result of Russia's neo-imperialist policy, says the Forum's resolution.
Participants in the discussions voiced their deep concern that "Russia, even after the annexation of Crimea and the creation of separatist entities in eastern Ukraine, has not abandoned its military aggression and is preparing for a large-scale war."
"We strongly condemn Russia's actions that contradict international law. The international community must demand that Russia respect the territorial integrity and sovereignty of states," the resolution said.
Forum participants strongly denied Russian attempts to question the sovereign rights of post-Soviet states, and in particular their desire to join NATO.
*The Azerbaijani Platform to Support Ukraine in the Name of Democracy is a civil initiative that does not represent any parties or public organizations. It was founded by a group of civil society activists - Khagani Jafarli, Tural Aghayev, Asif Yusifli, Sevinj Vagifghyzy, Adil Heybulla, Tatiana Kruchkina, Seymour Hazi and Abulfaz Gurbanly. -03В06-

Recall that Azerbaijan was deprived of its voting rights in PACE in January of the previous year.
