Novruz Mammadov answers Lidington
Official Baku is trying to fend off an unprecedented international criticism of power after sentencing the journalist Khadija Ismailova. As always, representatives of official Baku answer in their usual manner, denying the obvious facts. Novruz Mammadov, the deputy head of the Presidential Administration again differs by his extraordinary abilities. For example, commenting on the "Azertadj" rather restrained statement of the British Minister for Europe David Lidington, Novruz Mammadov, accused him of hypocrisy, ignorance, oppression and from interfering in the internal affairs of Azerbaijan. "Nobody has the right to interfere in our affairs, periodically making biased statements," Mammadov said, accusing Lidington insincerity. In turn, the press secretary of the Foreign Ministry Hikmat Hajiyev called "unacceptable" interference in the work of the court, the politicization of sentencing Khadija Ismailova, commenting on the statements by the US State Department, the UK Minister for Europe, the European Union and other Western organizations. "The Foreign Ministry has repeatedly stated that Azerbaijan fully ensures the independence of the judiciary and the rule of law," assured the spokesman. -16 / 02D-
