Azerbaijan's Consul General in Istanbul met with the management of the
Turkish CNN Turk TV channel upon the Azerbaijani foreign ministry's
instructions, acting spokesman for the Azerbaijani foreign ministry
Hikmet Hajiyev told reporters Nov. 14.
He expressed Azerbaijan's discontent in connection with the mistake
made while broadcasting an incident with Armenian downed military
helicopter.
"Euronews TV channel management was also informed about the Azerbaijani
side's discontent," he said. "It also spread inaccurate information
in this regards."
Hajiyev said that CNN Turk TV channel has already corrected the
mistakes in the report.
The report, prepared by the TV channel earlier, stated that
the helicopter allegedly belonged to the so-called "Army of
Nagorno-Karabakh" and Nagorno-Karabakh of Azerbaijan was presented
as a separate area.
On Nov. 12, at 13:45 (UTC/GMT +4 hours) a Mi-24 helicopter flying 1700
meters northeast of the Kengerli village of Aghdam district attacked
the positions of the Azerbaijani army. The Azerbaijani side shot down
one helicopter. The debris of the downed helicopter fell on an area,
located 500 meters away from the frontline.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan.
As a result of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied
20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and
seven surrounding districts.
The two countries signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs
of the OSCE Minsk Group, Russia, France and the US are currently
holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented four UN Security Council resolutions
on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
