The Azeri Foreign Ministry press service has forwarded a letter
of complaint to the Euronews TV channel over a report dealing with
Nagorno-Karabakh.
Azeri Foreign Ministry spokesman Elxan Poluxov told Interfax on
Tuesday that the report reflected only Armenia's position in the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
"The report openly demonstrates a lopsided position on the Nagorno-
Karabakh conflict. The lack of the other side's position in it can
be viewed as digression from journalistic standards," Poluxov said.
Nagorno-Karabakh was portrayed as a breakaway Azeri territory and
the head of this region as a president in the report, he said.
The Azeri Embassy in France will look into the matter, as the Euronews
headquarters is located in Lyon, Poluxov said.
The Azeri Foreign Ministry will form its position on the matter after
the TV channel replies to the letter, he said.
