The Letter of the International and Inter-Parliamentary Relations Committee of the Milli Majlis of the Republic of Azerbaijan to the European Parliament Protesting against the EP Resolution of 13 March 2025

We express our strong objection to the unfounded, unobjective and biased resolution titled ‘Unlawful Detention and Sham Trials of Armenian Hostages’, adopted by the European Parliament on 13 March 2025. This resolution disregards the principles of law and justice while failing to acknowledge Azerbaijan’s legitimate right to prosecute individuals involved in serious crimes. Furthermore, it deliberately overlooks the historical context and the immense suffering endured by the Azerbaijani people as the result of Armenia’s unlawful actions over the past three decades.
