The German Marshall Fund issued a statement condemning the publication
on haqqin.az on May 24 in 2013, the Azerbaijani information agency
Turan reports.
As the statement reads Ozgur Unluisarchy, the head of the Ankara
Office of the German Marshall Foundation gave an interview to the site
haqqin.az, and later it was published along with an additional
"analysis."
"The authors of both materials not only perverted statements of
Unluisarchy, but also added completely fictitious details in the text,
including the title. Marshall Foundation regarded it as a violation of
journalistic ethics, and condemned as an attempt to cast doubt on the
credibility of the organization and its employees," the statement
read.
On 24 May 2013 Azerbaijani portal "Haqqin.az" published an article
titled "Head of the American Foundation compared Aliyev's regime with
the regime of Assad." According to "Haqqin.az" Ozgur Unluisarchy
answered the question of whether the events in Syria will be spread in
Azerbaijan: "Both Syria and Azerbaijan have the same regimes. And
though the regimes are identical, I still do not see prerequisites for
this."
Later, on May 28 in 2013 "Haqqin.az" published another material titled
"What is behind the anti-Aliyev rhetoric of Turkish analyst?" In the
article Ozgur Unluisarchy, the head of "Marshall Fund" office in
Ankara, was heavily criticized, as well as the Turkish policy in
regard of Syria.
