    Yerevan (Yerkir) - Azerbaijan National Television and Radio Council
    (NTRC) might ban the broadcasting of international cable TV channels,
    that are of anti-Azerbaijani nature, NTRC Chairman Nushiravan
    Maharramli has told the Azerbaijani Trend News.

    "If any foreign television channel continues broadcasting such biased
    programs, we will demand their cessation," he said, speaking of
    "Nagorno-Karabakh - wind of change" program by Euronews.

    The report provoked a negative reaction in Azerbaijan up to a note
    of protest by Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry.

    Under NTRC decree, the broadcasting of BBC, Azadlig (Liberty) and Voice
    of America was suspended in accordance with law "On TV broadcasting".
