23/06/2023 | 12:03:45 Thank you, Madam Chair. First of all, I want to say thank you very much to the rapporteur. We know that the digital divide has a negative impact on the economy. When citizens do not have digital skills and knowledge of advanced technologies, they are unable to progress in their careers and contribute to their country's economy. Our concerns about the digital divide have been especially critical during the Covid-19 pandemic when the internet and digital devices played an important role in... 22/06/2023 | 19:44:43 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Azerbaijan's creation of a border checkpoint on the Lachin road is based on international law. With this, Azerbaijan controls the entry to and exit from its own territory. This is a necessary procedure applied by all countries. Those coming from Armenia and leaving Khankendi are checked and registered in an orderly and polite manner. It can be said with certainty that it stops transportation of weapons to our territories by Armenians. At... 19/06/2023 | 17:38:21 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) I participated as an observer in the Presidential elections and the 28th General Parliamentary Elections held in the Republic of Turkiye on May 11-14. We observed the elections in various locations. Considering this, I want to share my thoughts with you. We met main political parties participating in the upcoming elections. The representatives of all the parties we met emphasized that the pre-election process was in order and there were no... 25/01/2023 | 19:00:27 Thank you, Mr Chair. Dear Madam Rapporteurs, Thank you for your very good reports. Combating gender-based violence has been on the national and international agendas of many countries for decades. One way to combat violence is to get rid of deep-rooted gender stereotypes. We can prevent gender-based violence and protect the rights of all people if we make a concerted effort to transform unacceptable social norms. To do this we must act from different angles. First, to truly end violence and... 11/10/2022 | 19:17:07 Thank you, Madam chair. Dear Colleagues, Unfortunately, intolerance and discrimination against Muslims is not a new phenomenon. Moreover, in recent years, it has increased and become more widespread. One of the reason for the spread of Islamophobia is the spread of false information against Islam and Muslims by the Western media. Sometimes public and political figures also join this campaign, and European institutions are mostly indifferent towards this issue. Statements by some media... 26/04/2022 | 18:20:14 Thank you, Madam Chair. Dear Colleagues, Today one of the tendencies in the world is the creation of socially-oriented states ensuring sustainable economic development and social progress, increasing humanity in society, ensuring the equality of people. Realisation of equal rights for women and men, elimination of unemployment, eliminating discrimination and social isolation are on the agenda of most states. At the same time, the supremacy of human and civil rights have been accepted by most... 22/06/2021 | 18:48:50 Thank you, Mister Chairman. Ladies and gentlemen, the proposed document is dedicated to a very important issue. Children are among one of the groups who most suffered from the pandemic. It should be noted that during this period children had to spend more time at home because kindergarten schools and children's entertainment centres were not operating. This situation has led to many psychological problems in children such as those related to communication, behaviour, aggression, sleep, food... 22/06/2021 | 17:46:34 Thank you, Mister Chairman. Ladies and gentlemen, the coronavirus was a huge test for the whole world. Thousands of people lost their lives. There was social and economic crisis in the world. Continuous measures have been taken in Azerbaijan to come back from the global coronavirus pandemic and eliminate its negative effects. In general the economy received a total of about 1.5 billion Euros from the 2020 state budget and other sources to finance measures to reduce the negative impact of the...
