    £AZERBAIJAN @Hostages in the Context of the Karabakh Conflict - an Update

    £AZERBAIJAN @Hostages in the context of the Karabakh conflict - an update Introduction Hostage-taking has been an intractable problem since the beginning of the conflict over Karabakh - an area of Azerbaijan populated mainly by ethnic Armenians. Over 20,000 people are estimated to have died in this conflict which has spread beyond Karabakh, now under the overall control of ethnic Armenian forces, to other areas of Azerbaijan which they have occupied. Hundreds of people, many unarmed civilians, have been held as hostages by all sides to the conflict. These hostages have been held by private individuals, with the knowledge and/or complicity of the authorities. They have also been held by the authorities themselves, who in some cases are reported to have detained people and then distributed them as hostages to private families who have members held as hostages by the other side. There have been many reports of torture and ill-treatment in detention. The self-perpetuating cycle of taking hostages to exchange for those held by the other side has been exacerbated by the activity of intermediaries, who have brokered hostage distribution to families, or their exchange, for money. Even corpses are traded. Humanitarian law forbids hostage-taking under any circumstances. Amnesty International has persistently appealed to all parties to the conflict to ensure that no one is detained as a hostage, or otherwise held solely on the grounds of their ethnic origin. The organization strongly believes that all human rights violations are to be deplored and that in no circumstances can abuses perpetrated by one party be used as justification for abuses carried out by another.

As a follow-up to our phone conversation on Friday and to your e-mail request, please find: 1) Some background information on INOGATE and a recap of the recent discussions concerning INOGATE/energy programme forward: The INOGATE programme is a regional technical energy cooperation programme with countries neighboring the EU to the East (Eastern Partnership) and Central Asia, as defined in Baku and further confirmed in Astana Ministerial Conferences, supporting the implementation of the political priorities in the field of Converging energy markets; enhancing energy security; supporting sustainable energy development; and attracting Investment towards energy projects of common and regional interest. In addition, through the INOGATE programme, the European Union has been supporting countries that signed the EU Energy Community Treaty (Ukraine and Moldova) to implement it, and candidate countries (Georgia) to make the necessary reforms that would allow them to join the Energy Community. The programme will end in April 2016 and we are currently looking for potential interlocutors to take over its coordination beyond 2016. Please note that a global assessment of the regional energy support in EaP and CA countries (2007/2012) has been conducted and the results of this assessment will be taken into account when thinking of this long term strategy. The International Energy Agency is working on a proposal that would address energy statistics as well as the main policy issues of energy market convergence, sustainable energy development and energy security, with the ultimate aim of better integrating country specific needs in a broader discussion on energy at a regional level.

    Gas Interstate Transportation. Institutional Tools. The approach of EU financed programs – INOGATE and TRACECA Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Friends, Let me briefly present to you some of our experiences within EU initiated and financed INOGATE and TRACECA Programs. The INOGATE Program aims to facilitate the oil and gas transportation from Caspian basin to Europe and, as far as institutional aspects are concerned, by strengthening interstate cooperation between landlocked producing countries with transit and consumer countries.(fully in line with the United Nations Millennium Declaration on the landlocked and transit developing countries) The TRACECA Program aims to assist and facilitate the recreation of the historical “Greatest Silk Road”, which includes any type of transportation from Asia to Europe via Caucasus and the international markets. Both programs had a parallel life during the last decade and, besides of the numerous technical assistance projects for the rehabilitation of existing infrastructures, serving any type of transportation including energy products and gas transportation, they had important results: a) The Basic Multilateral Agreement on International Transport for development of the Europe-the Caucasus- Asia Corridor (the MLA), which was signed in 1998 in Baky by the heads of 13 states of Central Asia, The Caucasus and the Black Sea area. The MLA provides legal basis also for oil and gas pipe-line transportation; b) The INOGATE Umbrella Agreement, which was signed in 1999 in Kiev by the heads of 12 states, followed by another 9 acceding countries. Whilst during the first 10 years of their lives INOGATE and TRACECA programs have been predominantly institution-oriented, the next decade is expected to be issue-oriented.
