"I welcomed the European Parliament’s recommendations to the Council, the Commission and the European External Action Service on the negotiations of the EU-Azerbaijan association agreement. Azerbaijan plays an important role in the context of the European Union’s Eastern Partnership, which provides the political framework for strengthening bilateral relations by means of new association agreements. Azerbaijan has progressed rapidly in the field of ICT, in particular, with regard to e-governance, which increases the transparency of public administration and helps to combat corruption, and the government of Azerbaijan has shown itself ready to cooperate actively with the EU and take the necessary reforms to promote the development of democracy. I welcome the European Parliament’s recommendations to incorporate in the association agreement clauses and benchmarks on the protection and promotion of human rights, to emphasise the importance of guaranteeing citizens’ fundamental rights and freedoms, including the right of assembly and association, and private property rights, the development of civil society, the rule of law, the continued fight against corruption, political pluralism and the independence of the media and the judiciary, to fully comply with the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights, and to welcome the reforms made by Azerbaijani authorities in the judiciary."@en1
