On June 26-30 the PACE summer session will convene in
Strasbourg. During the session no issues directly connected with
Armenia will be discussed.

Nevertheless, the name of our country will be mentioned during the
discussions of other issues, namely, the freedom of speech in the
member-countries of the PACE or the questions to the Prime Minister of
Turkey. Debates on alleged secret detentions and unlawful inter-state
transfers in Europe will also be conducted.

On the morning of Tuesday 27 June Dick Marty (Switzerland, ALDE)
will present his report on "alleged secret detentions and unlawful
inter-state transfers of detainees involving Council of Europe member
states". Vice-President of the European Commission responsible for
Justice, Freedom and Security Franco Frattini and the European
Parliament’s rapporteur on this subject, Giovanni Claudio Fava,
will take part in the debate.

The President of the Council of the Russian Federation Sergey Mironov
will address the Assembly on Wednesday 28 June and Russian Deputy
Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko will present the Communication
from the Committee of Ministers to the Assembly the following day.

The parliamentarians will also discuss domestic violence against women,
ahead of the launch of a three-year Council of Europe campaign on
this theme, with the participation of the UN Special Rapporteur on
violence against women Yakin Erturk.

The website of "A1+" will represent details about the session during
the coming week. The "A1+" correspondent will highlight the whole
course of the PACE summer session from Strasbourg.
