Baku / 17.10.17 / Turan: Boryspil city court of Kiev today arrested for 18 days the Azerbaijani journalist, Dutch citizen Fikret Huseynli, said his lawyer Dmitry Mazurok.

The protection of the journalist is provided by the Ukrainian Helsinki Public Association for Human Rights.
According to the lawyer, Huseynli will stay in the detention center in Kiev for 18 days.

The closure of Azerbaijan's land borders was discussed during the parliamentary session on November 25. While the government’s decision cites the coronavirus pandemic as the main reason—despite the World Health Organization declaring its end last year—Zahid Oruj, Chair of the Human Rights Committee in the Milli Majlis, pointed to other factors. He stated, "Opening the borders could result in an influx of hundreds of thousands of non-Azerbaijani refugees due to the Russia-Ukraine war. Additionally, in Iran, many are prepared to cross into Azerbaijan to safeguard their lives and assets amid military strikes. Such waves of refugees could lead to humanitarian, social, and cultural clashes that may threaten political stability."
