Condemning the treatment of Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu by the Government of Azerbaijan and urging his immediate release, and for other purposes.
This resolution (HRES 1012) is a symbolic statement by the U.S. House of Representatives condemning Azerbaijan's detention of Dr. Gubad Ibadoghlu, an imprisoned academic and economist. It specifically addresses Azerbaijan's alleged wrongful arrest, beatings in custody, denial of medical care and legal access, and poor prison conditions. The resolution calls for Dr. Ibadoghlu's immediate release and urges the U.S. Secretary of State to prioritize his case in diplomatic engagements with Azerbaijan. As a non-binding resolution, it expresses congressional concern but does not enact new laws or impose sanctions.
