PACE decided to send to the parliamentary elections in Azerbaijan, observation mission of 32 people. The decision was taken today at a meeting of the PACE Bureau by 17 votes "for", with 10 "against". The delegation will head the Spanish deputy Jordi Hooghly, who was recently in Baku on fact-finding mission. Previously the ODIHR and the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly refused to send Election Observation Mission to Azerbaijan.
The European Parliament also recommended the European Commission and the EU countries not to send observers because of the absence of minimum democratic conditions for free and transparent elections. -06D-
