YEREVAN, JUNE 14, ARMENPRESS: To propagandize hatred towards Armenians,
the Azerbaijani authorities have often spread false information,
according to which drugs are being grown in the territory of
the Nagorno Karabakh Republic and then transferred to Azerbaijan
through the Islamic Republic of Iran. The Ambassador Extraordinary
and Plenipotentiary of the United States of America to Azerbaijan
Richard Morningstar, though, did not support the regular accusations
of the Azerbaijani authorities.
As reported by Armenpress, quoting the Azerbaijani APA news agency,
Richard Morningstar commented on the cultivation and transit of
drugs in the Azerbaijani territories, saying in particular that the
USA would be very much opposed to the growing and transporting drugs
from anywhere: "But we are not aware that these allegations in fact
are true".
According to the Azerbaijani press, the Deputy Prime Minister of
Azerbaijan Ali Hasanov even accused the UN of the fact that the
authoritative organization "supports the Karabakh drug mafia".
