"The recommendations voted for today in the context of the EU-Azerbaijan association agreement, which replaces the EU-Azerbaijan Partnership and Cooperation Agreement, significantly deepen Azerbaijan’s political association and economic integration with the EU. I am voting for the conclusion of this report because I believe Azerbaijan plays an important role in the EU Eastern Partnership. There are mutual benefits to concluding these agreements because of political stability and the EU’s strategic interest in the region’s democratic development; of the noteworthy economic growth of its domestic market; and of the energy issue, since it is an important energy supplier for the EU, although the energy issue has still not been broached in the negotiations.
I consider it extremely important to stress human rights and the citizens’ fundamental freedoms – political, association, expression, press and personal self-determination – in the negotiations, along with respect for the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights and the highest international and European standards. It will also be important to mention the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, as part of the efforts within the Eastern Partnership to achieve political reconciliation between Armenia and Azerbaijan."@en1
