Dear Zulfa Midkhatovna,
I am forwarding you the photos from the meeting with Alvaro Gil-Robles, Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, during his visit to your centre.
Please be informed that the president of the Republic of Tatarstan received a thank-you letter from E. Pamfilova, chairman of the Human Rights Commission under the President of the Russian Federation. The letter comments on the republic’s impressive achievements in achieving cultural and religious harmony and ensuring the social and economic rights of its people, and an expression of hope that these will be objectively reflected in Alvaro Gil-Robles’s report on human rights in Russia, which he is to present to the Council of Europe at the beginning of 2005.

Sincerely,

Human Rights
Commissioner
of the Republic of Tatarstan                    R.G. Vagizov
