The information about the operation of the Liberty radio on the
occupied lands of Azerbaijan has partially been confirmed.
Day.Az reports with reference to sources in the Liberty radio that
a correspondent started working as a freelancer for the Armenian
service of the radio in Khankendi.
It was noted that the correspondent point is not implied.
It should be reminded that on December 13 Day.Az reported with
reference to the Kavkazskiy uzel about the resumption of the activity
of the Azadlyg radio correspondent point in Khankendi which was
approved by the leaders of the separatist regime in the occupied
lands of Azerbaijan.
Sources in the official structures of Azerbaijan told our correspondent
that the intentions of the Liberty radio, which wants to get
information from the occupied lands of Azerbaijan are understandable.
Head of the Baku office of the Azadlyg radio Khadija Ismaylova told
Day.Az that Khankendi always had a freelance correspondent and in
this case one correspondent can just be replaced with another.
"Khankendi never had a correspondnet point of the Liberty Radio except
for a freelance correspondent. The information about the resumption
of activity of Liberty Radio in Nagorno Karabakh after 15 years of
interval is incorrect as all this time, the radio was present there",
said Ismaylova.
It should be noted that the plans of the Libery Radio with their
correspondent in Khankendi astonishingly "coincided" with the plans
of the National Television and Radio Council of Azerbaijan to halt
transmission of foreign radio stations, including Liberty radio on the
national frequencies of Azerbaijan, which is more likely a demarche.
On the background of the negative attitude of official Baku to foreign
companies, working in the occupied lands, we consider that this issue
will get due response.
