Azerbaijani students to stage protest outside Euronews headquarters
[ 05 Dec 2009 20:57 ]
Bakı-APA. Azerbaijani students studying in France and other European
countries plan to gather outside Euronews television news channel's
headquarters in Lyon to protest against its anti-Azerbaijani
propaganda. The protest is also supported by IRELI Public Association.
Jeyhun Osmanli, Chairman of IRELI, said Azerbaijani students studying
in Europe, as well as Azerbaijanis living in France will protest
against Euronews' biased position against Azerbaijan next week.
Azerbaijan was angered by Euronews recent report which showed
Azerbaijan's internationally recognized territory of Nagorno-Karabakh
as an independent state, and the head of that separatist regime as
"President".
Armenian armed forces illegally occupied Nagorno Karabakh amid the
chaos after the fall of the Soviet Union.
Armenia keeps holding the illegally invaded Azeri lands under
occupation in defiance of the UN Security Council's four resolutions
and other international organizations' and countries' calls on
unconditional withdrawal of Armenian armed forces.
Azerbaijan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs also expressed protest and
condemned the news channel's misleading stance on the long-drawn-out
conflict.
Azerbaijan National Television and Radio Council (NTRC) said it would
bring up the issue of suspending Euronews in local cable networks in
accordance with existing legislation if it continues anti-Azerbaijani
propaganda in a continuing manner.
Euronews assured it will prepare a programme in favour of Azerbaijan
to maintain the balance, said Nushiravan Maharramli, Chairman of the
NTRC.
"If they do not maintain the balance, there will be problems
concerning the transmission of this channel via cable networks in
Azerbaijan. We will take adequate measures. Euronews is currently
available via almost all cable networks in Azerbaijan,' he added.
