- Apply a moratorium on exports of weapons to Turkey that could be used in the conflicts in the Nagorno-Karabagh region, Libya or Syria (motion);
- Impose sanctions on people in Azerbaijan and Turkey who are responsible for the violence in Nagorno-Karabagh (motion); and
- Impose sanctions against Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, his family members, other key figures in the Azerbaijani offensive, and the Syrian fighters deployed by Turkey in Nagorno-Karabakh (motion).
