Winter session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) opens in Strasbourg on January 24-28.
Naira Zohrabyan, member of the Armenian delegation to PACE and head of the European integration committee said that there are no issues directly referring to Armenia on the agenda. However, she noted there are certain issues that somehow affect problems the Armenian side is interested in. “I intend to speak on three issues – structural reforms in the Council of Europe, migration problems and issues related to exchange of prisoners of war between CE member states,” News.am reports.
She also noted that Turkey takes over chairmanship in the CE ministerial committee in January. “The committee will be headed by Turkish Foreign Minister AhmetDavutoğlu. Turkish FM and President Abdullah Gul plan to deliver speeches during January session of the PACE,” Zohrabyan added.
