The report of the co-rapporteur of Parliamentary Assembly of OSCE on
Nagorno-Karabakh Goran Lenmarker contains several issues dissatisfying
Azerbaijan, Rabiyat Aslanova, the member of the Azeri delegation in
PA OSCE and also chairman of Azeri parliament’s permanent commission
on human rights, told Trend.

According to Aslanova, irrespective of the appeal of Azeri delegation
to the head of PA OSCE, the Nagorno-Karabakh issue wasn’t included in
the agenda of the summer session of PA. "But it doesn’t mean that we
will not raise this question at the session. In appearances of our
delegation it will be taken into consideration," told Aslanova.

She noted that the key topic of the discussion at the summer session
will be "Strengthening of human security in OSCE region". It is
directly related to the Nagorno-Karabakh issue. "This time we should
try that the Nagorno-Karabakh issue is included in the agenda,"
Aslanova stressed.

Besides, Aslanova ruled out that the report of the co-rapporteur of
PA OSCE on Nagorno-Karabakh Goran Lenmarker is ready which contains
several issues that are not satisfactory for Azerbaijan. "The
rapporteur tried to raise questions that are satisfactory for the
sides. But delivering to his attention that Azerbaijan is under
occupation, we require that he should prepare a fair report,"
Aslanova added.

Besides, Aslanova pointed out that evidently Lenmarker will have to
again work on the report.

The summer session of PA OSCE will be held in Brussels on 3-7 July.
