lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the draft resolution presented points out the most pressing problems in Azerbaijan which jeopardise the clean, democratic and pluralistic conduct of the parliamentary elections on 6 November. It seems that the representatives of the government apparatus state one thing and do another. In spite of the endeavours made so far by the South Caucasian delegation of the European Parliament, the public law dignitaries, Parliament and the government of Azerbaijan have a strange way of interpreting democracy, the rule of law, state and human rights. The Head of State and his entourage are ruling autocratically. As mentioned by the Commissioner, we must note that last week President Aliyev dismissed several highest-ranking government officials or ordered their arrest and detention on remand on charges of attempting to stage a . Subsequently, at the peak of the campaign, several dozen opposition and civil rights activists were arrested. All the signs point to the fact that the authority intends to defend its autocracy using its power, and tries to thwart the mass meetings of the opposition. As Azerbaijan is part of the EU Neighbourhood Policy, it is in our interest to see a fundamental change in the current situation, and the upcoming elections constitute the best opportunity for change. The European Parliament is interested in the establishment of a multi-party legislation process, ensuring equal opportunities for the opposition. I believe that the proposal we have tabled is extremely important. In this proposal, the European Parliament declares that international public opinion only accepts clean, free elections with equal opportunities. This is not just a warning from the European Parliament to Azerbaijan, but also an important message to the entire South Caucasian region. And Baku can prove itself on 6 November."@en1
