23/06/2022 | 19:21:32 Thank you Madam Chair, Ladies and gentlemen, Thank you very much to the rapporteur, first of all, for his important report which raises important questions for us. The development of telecommunication technologies and digital media have greatly changed our life, especially in recent years during the pandemic, people have begun to spend most of their time online, socialising, communicating with each other, spending free time. All over the world people are already accustomed to work and getting... 22/06/2022 | 10:48:16 Thank you, Madam Chair. Ladies and gentlemen, Unfortunately, despite the enormous efforts of states and international organisations, there has been a growth of religious violence in Europe recently. All of this happened against the backdrop of rising identity tensions and the popularity of far-right radical populist movements. In addition, social media is playing an increasingly important role as a place for debate. All this contributes to the growth of aggression not only against Jews, but... 21/06/2022 | 11:36:35 Thank you very much, Mister President. Let me start by expressing my appreciation to the rapporteur for these important discussions and raising such important issues as cybersecurity, disinformation, migration issues, extremism, energy security, and many others. I think that these all provide security of people, security of state, in every state. Ladies and Gentlemen, The problem of security is relevant at all times for every state. All countries of the world are carefully working out their... 28/04/2022 | 17:10:58 I will start from the beginning. In the modern world, the notion of democracy is changing. In these changing times, the notion of democracy for the functioning of modern democracy, the vital issue is tolerance. In societies where individual rights and freedoms are recognised and protected, some amount of tolerance of difference is required. Diversity in modern days is, first of all, is thought, it is speech, it is language, it is religion, it is values and attitudes. In addition to the... 26/04/2022 | 19:19:37 Thank you. Mine clearance remains an important issue in the post-conflict period in Azerbaijan. And Azerbaijan is one of the most mine-contaminated and unexploded ordnance countries after the liberation of territories from occupation. The main goal of the Azerbaijani government is the safe return of citizens to their native lands. The timing of this return depends on the demining of the territories and today more than 30 people have died from mines in the liberated territories, both military... 24/01/2022 | 17:19:17 Ladies and gentlemen. Dear Mr President, the variety of forms of voluntary participation of children in decision-making processes on issues affecting their interest, ensuring openness and setting standards for such participation are the key to improving the quality of life not only for children but for society as a whole. The rights of the child could be heard and taken seriously as one of the four main principles of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The right to express one's... 22/06/2021 | 18:38:15 Thank you very much Mr Chairman. Ladies and gentlemen, probably most of the speeches will be repeated because we only are united in one idea: that we have to support children during the Covid-19 pandemic. First of all I would like to congratulate Baroness Doreen MASSEY for her excellent report and thank her for attracting attention to children's rights in Covid-19 times and raising this important issue. The pandemic is not over and we're still learning how to live in this situation, how to... 22/06/2021 | 09:45:59 Thank you, Mr Chairman, ladies and gentlemen, No state can develop democracy without freedom of speech, press and dissemination of ideas and opinions. Democratic societies can only function sustainably if citizens are well informed, have free access to information and can freely change it and discuss different views and opinions. Free media is a platform for the free exchange of opinions. Progress is only possible if the prevailing opinion can still be challenged. If there is no such... 30/01/2020 | 12:15:43 Thank you, Mr Chair. It seems like this discussion is based on hypocrisy. Today in the role of judges there are occupant Armenians who can deal with neither the power sharing in their country nor with the corruption. Enough hypocrisy, dear colleagues. Probably for the first time during my work in PACE, I fully disagree with the position of the rapporteur. Madam rapporteur, addressing Azerbaijan you've chosen absolutely wrong language. If we speak about respect let me remind you that the... 29/01/2020 | 11:20:46 Mister President, Ladies and gentlemen, Religion gives billions of people in our planet hope and brings peace to their souls. However, the history of mankind knows many cases when religion become a source of disagreement, conflict, and war. As a result of which, many people and even nations were infringed over the right of religion. In Azerbaijan, located at the crossroads of various civilizations, the traditions of tolerance and multiculturalism have been formed for centuries. For centuries...
