"False statements are being circulated on behalf of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan in the Turkish segment of social media," stated in a statement by the Media and Broadcasting Council of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Media and Broadcasting Council of the Republic of Azerbaijan said in a statement, APA reports.
The statement noted that attributing remarks to the head of state that he did not make and presenting them as his official position is a blatant example of disinformation aimed at misleading the public.
"We once again emphasize that the primary and official sources of information about the speeches, statements and activities of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan are the head of state's official website and social media accounts. When preparing and disseminating information on this topic, reference should be made specifically to these sources, and statements and opinions presented on other platforms should not be attributed to the head of state without confirmation from official sources.
The Media and Broadcasting Council of the Republic of Azerbaijan calls on media organizations and social media users to take a responsible approach to verifying the accuracy of information, check the information against official sources before sharing it, and prevent the spread of disinformation," the statement said.
