Visit of Co-rapporteurs of PACE Monitoring Committee
The co-rapporteurs of PACE Monitoring Committee on Azerbaijan Pedro Agramunt (Spain) and Tadeusz Iwinski (Poland) will visit Baku on March 2-3.
According to the press service of the Council of Europe, the purpose of the visit is evaluation of the implementation of Azerbaijan's commitments to the Council of Europe.
The program of the visit will include meetings with President of Azerbaijan, the head of the Presidential Administration, the Speaker of Parliament, the Prosecutor General, the Chairman of the CEC, the Minister of Justice and members of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE.
The visitors are assumed to also meet with representatives of civil society and international organizations in Baku.
In addition, Agramunt and Iwinski intend to visit political prisoners and to meet with their lawyers, as the press service of the Council of Europe stressed.
Agramunt is not credible with the civil society in Azerbaijan because of his conformist position. At the June session of PACE he was instructed to prepare a report on political prisoners in Azerbaijan, but he did not come to Azerbaijan.
Iwinski replaced the other co-rapporteur, Gresh from Malta.
The Polish MP was a member of the PACE observation mission for the parliamentary elections in 2010, which gave rather a soft assessment of the elections, in contrast to the OSCE ODIHR, which criticized the elections. -06D-
