"Musavat" threatens to boycott European Games
"Musavat" party issued a statement condemning the restriction of human rights in Azerbaijan and the growing number of political prisoners. The party condemned the statement of official Baku for the absence of political prisoners in the country, emphasizing that all efforts to release political prisoners and prisoners of conscience are resultless. In a statement, the authors remind us that a pardon on the eve of Novruz holiday has not produced tangible results, and today about a hundred prisoners of conscience and political prisoners are in jail .
The statement calls on a demand to release all political prisoners and prisoners of conscience. In case of failure of this demand, the party threatens to call on the international community to boycott the European Games in Baku. -05D04-
