Situation of human rights protection in Azerbaijan is discussed by
the international media more and more as the "Eurovision 2012" song
contest approaches. Especially Germany pays attention to the issue
and Germany media write about Azerbaijan as an inappropriate place
to hold "Eurovision 2012". Dictatorial regime is noted as a reason.
Armenian panorama.am news agency presented an article in Armenian
from German Die Zeit newspaper. The article especially says:
"Journalists without border organization informs that atmosphere of
fear and repressions again leads in Azerbaijan. Europe is interested
in human rights violations in Russia first of all. But Azerbaijan has
independence for already 20 years and is still an unknown territory
for Europe.
Correct plan of the "Eurovision" is a state secret here. Azerbaijan
which is known as a country of oil and gas now wants to attract
tourists using the song contest. We present information for those
who seeks something about Azerbaijan: this ex-soviet country got
independence on 1991. On 1993 Heydar Aliyev became president and
dictatorial regime rules there since then. Every journalist who bears
to condemn the authorities is attacked, arrested, kidnapped and even
is killed in this country.
Last year Rafig Tagi's murder was a sensation in the world media. He
was killed as he had condemned Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev,
Islamic religion and Mohammed prophet. Azerbaijan is on the 152 place
at the list of media freedom with Iraq and Afghanistan. "Freedom House"
has also condemned Azerbaijani authorities for limiting political
rights and freedoms in the republic."
