Officials compete in the search for enemy forces

Baku / 16.07.18 / Turan: In recent days, official media and information resources controlled by the authorities have turned into a podium, from where numerous "experts" and "political scientists" share their discoveries about the reasons for the events in Ganja on July 3 and 10.

It turns out that the deputies of parliament, the editor of the newspapers and all know exactly that the protests in Ganja are the work of foreign enemies, pro-Armenian forces and radical opposition.

The list of allegations is constantly expanding, without any evidence. The fantasy of "experts" is great; thus the head of the Press Council Aflatun Amashov said that the events in Ganja are the answer of the enemies for the launch of the TANAP (!) Gas pipeline. Other commentators repeat, as a spell, the involvement of religious radicals, who are being sent from abroad.

Today, MP Gudrat Hasanguliyev said that Russia is behind the events in Ganja, but he did not say on what is based his report. It is surprising because Hasanguliyev is traditionally known for his pro-Russian position and advocated joining the CSTO and the Customs Union if Russia helps in the Karabakh issue.

Against the background of an abundance of such "information", the official Baku is silent and does not give any information about the reasons for the events in Ganja. Meanwhile, security measures are increasing in many cities and regions of the country, the police do not allow people to get together. In private conversations, police officers explain the situation by the probability of new protests. -02B-
