BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 19. The Western
Azerbaijan Community has vehemently denounced the disparaging
statement issued by the United States Embassy in Azerbaijan,
asserting that it intrudes upon the nation's internal affairs,
Trend reports,
referring to the community's recent statement.
"We want to draw the attention of the U.S. Embassy, which tries
to 'justify' its slanderous campaign against Azerbaijan by citing
"freedom of speech issues" in our country, to the fact that the
true cause of this pressure is Azerbaijan's efforts to restore its
territorial integrity and sovereignty," the statement reads.
The Community further pointed out that the current U.S.
administration has lost its credibility to speak on human rights as
it pursues a policy of discrimination against Azerbaijanis based on
ethnic and religious grounds. They also accused the U.S. of
selectively approaching the issue of territorial integrity and
sovereignty while supporting Armenia's policies of deportation,
ethnic cleansing, aggression, and occupation.
"We, as the Western Azerbaijan Community, constantly experience
this unjust approach and discrimination. Furthermore, the
aggressive rhetoric of the U.S. Embassy in response not only to
even the slightest criticism but also to simple inquiries shows
their indifference to the 'freedom of speech' and 'diversity of
opinions' they arrogantly claim to champion.
We demand that the U.S. administration cease interfering in
Azerbaijan's internal affairs, put an end to the discrimination of
its people, and stop using human rights for political purposes,"
the statement states.
