After the approval of my report in Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, State commissions on POWs, Hostages and Missing Persons can have closer cooperation”-Leo Platvoet, PACE reporter for captured and missing persons in South Caucasus informed APA during the exclusive interview.
He noted that during his visit to Baku he called the relevant state commissions of both countries to cooperation. “I do not know how precisely my recommendations are fulfilled, I am not informed about it”. However, I closely cooperated with both commissions while preparing my report, therefore I believe in its approval. As APA was informed in the information office of CoE in Baku, L.
