According to official sources Azerbaijan considers the report prepared about the country by the co-rapporteurs of the PACE Monitoring Committee to be the true and recognizable document, as opposed to PACE rapporteur Christoph Strasser’s report on political prisoners in Azerbaijan.
Head of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE, Samad Seyidov told journalists that the spread information that representatives on the exclusion of some names from the list of political prisoners prepared by Strasser is not true.
“It is possible that names on this list prepared by the Monitoring Committee and Strasser will coincide. Azerbaijan cannot use Strasser’s report which pursues different goals. We are working with the report prepared by the Monitoring Committee”, said Seyidov.
According to him, Armenia will use a biased position towards Azerbaijan as usual.
“Armenia has always demonstrated a biased position on matters related to Azerbaijan. Armenia has become even more active on this matter because for the first time, the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict was mentioned in PACE’s report on Azerbaijan.”, he said.
