"The fact that the report of Freedom House on freedom of press
places Azerbaijan behind Armenia says that this document should not
be trusted, as it is biased".
The due announcement was made by Ali Ahmedov, deputy chairman and
executive secretary of the Yeni Azerbaijan party, according to APA.
He said the most important is the assessment of the country residents.
"The assessments made by any public international organizations differ
from each others so much and are so discrepant and it is difficult to
trust them. To place Azerbaijan behind Armenia after all the events,
which occurred in this country in connection with the presidential
elections, is another demonstration of the policy of double standards.
We should not pay attention to such groundless and biased reports. The
document is based on principles which are far from justice".
Ahmedov said Armenia has many supporters and development of such a
report pursues the goal of concealing its shame from the world.
It should be noted that in the report, Azerbaijan occupies the 168th
place by freedom of press and Armenia 144th.
