Soviet Tradition Alive in Azerbaijan
On January 15, the Faculty of Informatics, head teachers who are in the party New Azerbaijan, along with directors of secondary schools in Baku, were centrally notified that foreign NGO, OCCP and Radio Free Europe has “dug up incriminating evidence” on our beloved president. OCCP was declaring that the honest man was the No. 1 corrupt in the world.
Following the task in preparing letters of gratitude to the Government and the party, protest letters will be sent against "the minions of the world, Armenians," grist to the mill of the enemies of Azerbaijan. Instructors have not given prepared texts, should be sent to the addresses drew@occrp.org, levisonya@rferl.org, zvanersma@rferl.org, and info@iftf.org saying different individual heartfelt messages. Not to be neglected by the teachers, will also be to the Gorbachev Foundation mgorbis_twitter page, remembering the last General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU. The "whitewashing" of the head of state will continue for a month, informed sources told Turan. By the way, in 1983, when Heydar Aliyev started as working deputy chairman of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, two car loads of telegrams of discontent "from the working masses" were sent to Moscow.
Recall in l 2012 the President of Azerbaijan, for the first time, was named "Man of the Year" according to the survey of the international project OCCRP, Report on organized crime and corruption. This prize was awarded by a media group and NGOs to a man who held a prominent place in the history of crime and corruption.
As stated in the OCCRP press release, there were many reasons why Aliyev was chosen. It became known in 2012, his family made a great personal profit through public transactions in various fields: telecommunications, mining, construction and industry. In 2012, research by OCCRP and Radio Free Europe showed documented evidence that his family has a secret ownership in the country's largest companies, including banks, construction, telecommunications companies, and gold mines. They also secretly bought property abroad.
The Azerbaijani government has responded to these allegations with silence, while Baku is hard at "work" improving its image in the world. However, 2012 reports paint a picture of a "small dictatorship." -0 -
