MP: European Parliament resolution to strain Baku-Brussels interparliamentary relations

Baku, June 16, AZERTAC “A resolution of the European Parliament on Afghan Mukhtarli case will strain the interparliamentary relations between Baku and Brussels,” MP Rasim Musabayov has told AZERTAC. “Our colleagues in the European Parliament have again hastened to draw conclusions without examining the essence of the matter and adopt “The case of Afgan Mukhtarli and the situation of media in Azerbaijan” resolution alleging the violation of the rights of journalists in the country.” “No one knows that person as a journalist not only in Europe, but even in Azerbaijan. I haven’t encountered a single article of him, because simply there are not any.” Musabayov mentioned Azerbaijan`s partnership with the European Parliament. ”Unlike other Eastern Partnership countries who regularly seek financial support from the European Union, we maintain mutually beneficial partnership with the organization.”
