Азербайджанские депутаты и журналисты побывали на передовой.

Члены парламента Азербайджана и журналисты, аффилированные с парламентским Союзом журналистов, посетили солдат, проходящих службу на передовой в зоне нагорно-карабахского конфликта. Депутаты Фуад Мурадов и Ровшан Рзаев в сопровождении ряда журналистов и представителей НПО побывали в подразделениях в Товузском районе. Они встретились с военнослужащими и осмотрели казармы, расположенные недалеко от линии соприкосновения.

Про-правительственный веб-сайт modern.az сообщает, что цель визита, чтобы общественность Азербайджана должным образом была осведомлена о ситуации на линии фронта, в интересах национальной безопасности. Он пояснил, что визит является частью проекта государственной комиссии по поддержанию деятельности НПО.

За последние недели Министерство обороны Азербайджана нераз критиковало независимые средства массовой информации, и обвиняло их в распространении дезинформации в освещении военных вопросов. Озабоченность министерства была в основном связана с инцидентами, которые ежедневно происходили на линии соприкосновения, и за которыми часто следовали жертвы. Министерство обороны и в прошлом не одобряло сообщения СМИ касательно условий жизни солдат на передовой.

Ethiopian dam upsets Egypt, whilst China plays a difficult game

Ethiopia last week opened its mega dam on the River Nile, the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam. The launch has sparked a tense diplomatic battle between Ethiopia and Egypt, with Cairo denouncing it as “an unlawful unilateral act” and protesting to the United Nations Security Council. During an inauguration ceremony on Tuesday (9 September) Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed described the US$5 billion Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam as a “symbol of Ethiopian unity and national achievement". Several regional leaders, including Kenyan President William Ruto and Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, attended the event. Egypt, whose life has historically centred around the River Nile, believes the dam will threaten its water supply and cause shortages. Following the inauguration, Cairo warned that it reserved the right to take all measures provided for under international law and the UN Charter to “defend the existential interests of its people”. Sudan, has also raised concerns about dam safety and the risk of uncoordinated water releases.
