17 November 2008 10:27 (UTC +04:00)

Baku. Ramil Mammadliâ€“APA. NATO Parliamentary Assembly is expected during its autumn session in Valencia, Spain to adopt resolution on territorial integrity of Georgia and its NATO membership. Chairman of United Azerbaijan Peopleâ€™s Front Party and member of the Parliament Gudrat Hasanguliyev said the draft resolution had already been supported by all committees of the NATO PA and it was not expected to face with any difficulties, the party sources told APA.

The resolution considers univocal recognition of Georgiaâ€™s sovereign rights over South Ossetia and Abkhazia and its territorial integrity. It demands from Russia to fulfill completely the six-point Medvedev-Sarkozy plan and to withdraw its forces from the Georgiaâ€™s territory of South Ossetia and Abkhazia.

One of the important points of the resolution relates to the Georgiaâ€™s membership to NATO. â€œLeaders of NATO member countries are recommended to support the action plan on the Georgiaâ€™s membership to the Alliance at their summit in Decemberâ€, said in the resolution. Georgian Vice-Prime Minister and State Minister of Euro-Atlantic Integration Georgiy Baramidze also attends the NATO PA autumn session.
