    Azerbaijan shows a high level of religious intolerance. This is stated
    in the report "Religious Freedom 2014," prepared by Aid to the Church
    in Need (ACN). The report is published in CatholicCulture.org.

    According to the report, among 20 countries that show a "high"
    level of religious intolerance, 14 are Islamic states: Afghanistan,
    Central African Republic, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Maldives, Nigeria,
    Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.

    The other six of them - Azerbaijan, Myanmar, China, Eritrea, North
    Korea and Uzbekistan - are ruled by authoritarian regimes where
    Muslims are prominent among the victims of religious persecution.

    ACN studied 196 nations. The report found a high level of religious
    intolerance in 20 countries. The situation is deteriorating in 55
    countries, and only 6 countries have shown improvement.
