Visit of Ilham Aliyev to Brussels Starts

President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev yesterday night arrived in Brussels for a working visit. During the visit, the head of state is accompanied by his spouse Mehriban Aliyeva.

 
June 21, Aliyev will hold talks with the head of European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso and EU Council President Herman Van Rompuy. One of the main topics of discussion will be energy cooperation and the realization of the "Southern Gas Corridor".
 
However, on the eve of Aliyev's visit to Brussels, EU leaders were sent the treatment of a large group of civil society activists in Azerbaijan and the international organization Human Rights Watch that called for the negotiations to raise the issue of human rights violations in Azerbaijan. Last week, the European Parliament adopted a resolution condemning the violation of the freedom of assembly and expression in Azerbaijan, as well as the harassment of citizens for political reasons, and in particular the arrest of the leader of REAL Ilgar Mamedov. -06D -
