AZERI OPPOSITION PARTY CALLS TO EXPEL AZERBAIJAN FROM COUNCIL OF EUROPE

“The Great Creation” Azeri opposition party intends to request the Council of Europe (CE) to expel the country from the organization. The party took the decision to draw up an appeal to the PACE sitting, which will discuss Azerbaijan’s fulfillment of the commitments to the CE on October 5. In the opinion of the party members, being governed by means of “feudal” methods, Azerbaijan, where even deputies are subjected to tortures, cannot be a CE member.
