At the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) session, Naira Zohrabyan, an outgoing member of the Armenian delegation to the PACE, spoke again about the issue of Armenian POWs in Azerbaijan, calling on the Council of Europe (CoE) to move from inconsequential statements to concrete steps.

Zohrabyan called on the CoE to suspend the powers of the Azerbaijani delegation to PACE, and freeze the European bank accounts of Azerbaijan’s ruling Aliyev family and the country's political elite.

She noted that only with tough sanctions it is possible to resolve the issue of the aforesaid Armenian POWs.
