Azerbaijan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has condemned the
detention of Pavel Durov, the founder of the Telegram social
network, and African rights activist Kemi Seba by French law
enforcement, Azernews reports.
In a statement responding to a local media inquiry, ministry
spokesperson Aykhan Hajizada criticized the arrests as a violation
of fundamental human rights in France.
"It is unacceptable to subject these individuals to persecution
based on their Political views and convictions," Hajizada
emphasized.
The spokesperson called for a transparent and fair investigation
by French authorities, urging the international community to be
kept fully informed of the findings. He further stated that the
arrests, which he described as politically motivated, should be
thoroughly examined by institutions such as the European Union, the
Council of Europe, and the Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).
