I am especially grateful to him that he had time to visit Azerbaijan for three working days, and met with all relevant people in the government, opposition, civil society, defence lawyers, etc. And I am particularly grateful to our rapporteur that he had time to have a meeting with me and the chairman of our political party, former political prisoner, Mr Ilgar Mammadov, his name was already mentioned here. He is... 25/04/2023 | 17:48:53 Thank you Madam Chair, First of all, let me express my personal gratitude to the rapporteur. This is a very good report.

Everything that I saw and heard there was very familiar to me, because It reminded me of what had been happening in my country throughout all those 30 years of aggression and occupation. When the vice-mayor of the city of Irpin asked me if I had any question... 24/06/2022 | 11:45:39 Thank you, Mister Chairman. Dear colleagues, Initially I had something else to say in mind, but having heard what our Armenian and Azerbaijani colleagues said this morning, I can't help but to answer some of those. Many years ago I promised to myself not to be engaged in disputes of this kind. I kept loyal to my self-imposed obligations. I've seen a lot.
