"On the sidelines of the OSCE PA session last week, we held a meeting with the Dutch delegation, which said it was planning to assess this matter with Western colleagues during the summer session," Jabbarov told RIA Novosti.
According to the senator, OSCE PA deputies wish to visit Crimea in order to "independently verify that everything is in order and that human rights are respected."
"We are talking about an official visit, this is supported by representatives from the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and other countries," he said.
A human rights mission of the Council of Europe visited Crimea in January to objectively assess the situation involving human rights and the rule of law in the region and to prepare a report containing recommendations in a number of key areas.
