BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 29. The
People of Corsica Support Group set up in Azerbaijan’s Parliament
has issued a statement on the draft constitutional law adopted by
the French National Assembly.
This was reported by the Press and Public Relations Department
of the Milli Majlis (Parliament of Azerbaijan).
"The adoption of the draft constitutional law establishing the
special autonomous status of Corsica within the French Republic by
the French National Assembly is an important milestone for the
Corsican people. The draft law envisages granting Corsica broader
self-government powers, taking into account the historical,
cultural, social, and geographical characteristics of the island,
and in this regard is assessed as an important political result of
the peaceful, democratic, and consistent struggle waged by the
Corsican people over many years.
We, as the Support Group for the Corsican People in the
Parliament of Azerbaijan, highly appreciate this determination,
determination, and commitment to democratic principles of the
Corsican people and sincerely welcome them. The determination and
determination demonstrated by the Corsican people in determining
their own future once again show that the legitimate demands of the
peoples sooner or later find their reflection in the political
arena. In this regard, the decision adopted by the French National
Assembly is not only a legislative act, but also an important
political achievement of the long-term struggle of the Corsican
people.
We hope that the French Senate will also demonstrate historical
responsibility and support the decision adopted by the French
National Assembly, thereby expressing respect for the democratic
will of the Corsican people. The Support Group for the Corsican
People in the Parliament of Azerbaijan will continue to support the
objective assessment of the legitimate rights, democratic will, and
peaceful political struggle of the Corsican people by the
international community,” the statement said.
