By the order of the President Ilham Aliyev Sona Veliyeva was appointed as a member of the National TV and Radio Council (NTRC) of Azerbaijan for a period of 6 years.
Veliyeva is the founder of the newspaper Kaspi and the wife of the head of the socio-political department of the Presidential Administration Ali Hasanov.
NTRC is the broadcasting regulator. All the nine members of NTRC are appointed by the President, three of them for a period of six years, three - for 4 years and three - for 2 years.
Such a model of NTRC has drawn criticism from local and international experts, as it causes the complete dependence of the regulatory body of the executive power. -06D -
