Ilham Aliyev leaves a note in the book of condolences due to the death of Peres

Young economist Fazil Gasimov has been on a hunger strike in prison for 82 days. He is protesting against his illegal arrest.

The investigation restricted the rights of the arrested “Toplum TV” journalist Mushvig Jabbar to carry out notarial actions, and in particular to issue a power of attorney to his relatives, his lawyer Nazim Musayev told Turan. The need for a power of attorney is due to the fact that Jabbar purchased a car at an auction abroad before his arrest. While the car was being delivered to Azerbaijan, the journalist was arrested. Since May, the car has been held at customs and a fee is charged for parking.  To clear the car, Jabbar must issue a power of attorney to his loved ones. However, the management of the pre-trial detention center refuses, referring to the investigator's ban.

In an interview with “Voice of America”, Chairman of the National Council of Democratic Forces Jamil Hasanli commented on the critical assessments of the OSCE Observation Mission following the results of the early parliamentary elections. According to him, the preliminary conclusion does not just reflect reality, but a fairly complete document. The only organization with a mandate to monitor elections in Europe is the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights. They have prepared a full-fledged document in a few weeks. However, the violations in the elections were much deeper than the OSCE can imagine, Hasanli noted.

Official Baku continues to aggravate relations with France, supporting the struggle of the population of its overseas territories for independence. Following the events in support of the independence of Polynesia and Caledonia, issues of independence of the island of Mayotte are being resolved in Baku.
