Today, Azerbaijan
Feb 21 2007
"The solution of the problem on missing persons would help remove
hostility, mistrust and intolerance between the parties and by this
way, resolve the conflicts in the region.
"Families of missing persons have the right to know what happened
to these people. This is their right assigned by international
humanitarian law and European Convention on Human Rights," reads the
report drawn up by Leo Platvoet, PACE Rapporteur on missing persons
in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia.
The report says that not only Azerbaijani, Armenian, Georgian
governments, but also the regimes in Nagorno Karabakh, Abkhazia and
South Ossetia should be involved in the solution of the problem, as
the solution of the issue is possible with involvement of all parties.
Therefore PACE calls on all parties to support the efforts for the
solution of the problem, approach the problem from humanitarian,
not from political aspect, act in the framework of international
standards, coordinate their activities with International Committee
of the Red Cross, collect all facts, and establish relations with
one another and also with families of the missing persons.
PACE calls on Armenia to establish a working group for relations with
Azerbaijan, complete collecting the facts, exchange information with
opposite side and calls Azerbaijan to ratify two protocols added
to Geneva Convention, improve relations with relevant commissions
dealing with this problem in Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh, complete
collecting facts, exchange information with the opposite side.
PACE also calls on the regime in Nagorno Karabakh to improve relations
with relevant commission in Azerbaijan, complete collecting facts
and exchange information with the opposite side, APA reports.
