Baku / 14.12.20 / Turan: Four servicemen of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, suspected of mocking the bodies of the dead Armenian soldiers during the fighting in the Zangelan region and distributing a video of bullying on the network were arrested, the General Prosecutor's Office of Azerbaijan reported on December 14.
Two more Azerbaijani soldiers are suspected of destroying stone slabs on Armenian graves at a cemetery in the Khojavend region.
The General Prosecutor's Office declares, “Committing the above criminal acts by the military personnel of the Republic of Azerbaijan is unacceptable and contradicts the mentality of the Azerbaijani people, historically distinguished by humanism, preferring tolerant, multicultural values. Persons who have committed violations of a similar nature will be brought to justice with the adoption of measures provided for by law.
Based on the collected materials related to this information, the military prosecutor's office filed a lawsuit under the Articles 115.2 (torture, cruel or inhuman treatment of them) and 245 (insulting actions on a grave or over a corpse) of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and intensive investigations were carried out in the case.-0-

It is difficult to predict the future of Azerbaijan-U.S. relations under Donald Trump, said Ali Kerimli, leader of the Azerbaijan Popular Front Party (PFPA), in an interview with Turan agency. "Since Trump's team has not yet been formed, it is unclear who will be appointed Secretary of State, who is responsible for foreign policy. It is also unclear what priorities Trump's team will have for the Caucasus region," Kerimli noted. At the same time, certain assumptions can be made about Trump's policy.
