The Azerbaijani authorities' actions, directed to the restriction
of activities of journalists covering the Nagorno Karabakh issue,
are unacceptable, according to Karen Bekaryan, expert, chairman of
"European Integration" NGO.
Karen Bekaryan commented on a release by "Reporters without Borders"
that expresses concerns about such actions by the Azerbaijani
authorities. The expert said many international establishments speak
about this; however no any step is undertaken to prevent it. "This
is an indirect proof of that the international establishments should
work with the Nagorno Karabakh directly, because if Azerbaijan does not
allow reporters to do their job, it means the international community
must not be aware of Nagorno Karabakh. The only thing that can balance
this is working in Nagorno Karabakh," Karen Bekaryan said.
