"We welcome all those member-states of the Council of Europe (including all EU member states) that have abolished the death penalty under any circumstances, and we call on the last two member-states of the Council of Europe that have not yet joined this Protocol: Armenia and Azerbaijan to do so without delay," the statement stresses.
It ought to be noted that in Azerbaijan and Armenia, the death penalty has been abolished in criminal legislation, but its use is allowed in wartime conditions. -16B-
