Baku. Ulker Bekirli – APA. The Azerbaijani side has expressed discontent to BBC over its journalist Reda El Mawy’s reportage from Azerbaijan’s Nagorno-Karabakh region occupied by Armenia, Foreign Ministry spokesman Hikmat Hajiyev told APA on Monday.
The spokesman said that Azerbaijan is awaiting an explanation from the BBC.
“As can be seen in the reportage, a BBC reporter has made an unauthorized visit to the occupied territories of Azerbaijan, violating the law on state border inviolability,” he noted.
Hajiyev also added that some expressions used in the film, which is biased and tendentious, distort the true essence of the conflict, promoting the aggression, invasion and a policy of bloody ethnic cleansing committed by Armenians against Azerbaijanis.
“As can be seen in the reportage, Armenia is purposefully settling Syrian refugees of Armenian origin in occupied Azerbaijani territories in order to change the demographic balance there in its favor, flagrantly violating the Geneva conventions. The Azerbaijani side has raised this issue before the international community, including the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs,” he underlined.
