В Азербайджане приостановили лицензию на вещание телеканалу ANS TV

Регулятор СМИ Азербайджана приостановил действие лицензии самого популярного частного телеканала страны ANS TV. Этот шаг был предпринят после того, как телекомпания объявила, что покажет в своем эфире интервью с находящимся в изгнании турецким священнослужителем Фетхуллах Гюленом, который обвиняется в организации военного переворота в Турции, произошедшего в минувшие выходные.

В заявлении Национального совета по телерадиовещанию говорится, что "азербайджанская общественность, организации гражданского общества, выражают солидарность с турецким народом и решительно осуждают попытку свержения законно избранной власти. Тем не менее, телеканал ANS занял позицию, противоречащую духу братства и стратегическое партнерство между Азербайджаном и Турцией, проводя пропаганду против турецкого государства и правительства, выразив при этом поддержку организатору переворота в Турции, Фетхуллаху Гюлену".

В заявлении также говорится: "В соответствии со статьей 11, Закона Азербайджанской Республики по вопросам телевидения и радиовещания, а также принимая во внимание обращение генерального прокурора Азербайджана, с тем чтобы предотвратить провокацию, направленную на подрыв стратегических отношений между Турцией и Азербайджаном Национальный совет по телерадиовещанию принял решение о временной приостановке вещания телеканала ANS".

Было также сказано, что регулятор намерен подать иск против ANS TV, "и окончательное решение будет принято судом".

Во вторник президент группы компаний ANS, Вахид Мустафаев, и генеральный директор телеканала ANS, Миршахин Агаев, были вызваны в отдел по расследованию преступлений в Управление Генеральной прокуратуры.

ANS TV одно из наиболее независимых, непредвзятых и популярных телевидений в Азербайджане. Канал часто занимает жесткую позицию по карабахской проблеме. В прошлом уже были трудности между вещателем и правительством Азербайджана, но в последние годы стороны пришли к взаимоприемлемому методу работы и ANS приглушила свою критику в адрес правительства.

Germany accuses Russia of cyberattacks and disinformation campaign

The German government holds Russia responsible for a cyberattack on German air traffic control, and for targeted disinformation campaigns before the last federal election. According to the German Foreign Office in Berlin, the incidents could be clearly attributed to the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. In response, the Russian ambassador to Berlin was summoned to the Foreign Ministry. "We have been observing a massive increase in threatening hybrid activities by Russia for some time now," a spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry stated. These range from disinformation campaigns and espionage to cyberattacks and sabotage attempts. The aim is to divide society, sow distrust, and undermine confidence in democratic institutions. The spokesperson added that with these actions, Russia is "very concretely threatening our security, not only through its war of aggression against Ukraine, but also here in Germany."  The Foreign Ministry spokesperson explained that the cyberattack on air traffic control in August 2024 was clearly attributed to the hacker collective "APT28," known as "Fancy Bear," and to the responsibility of the Russian military intelligence service, the GRU. Furthermore, it could now be "conclusively stated" that Russia had attempted "to influence and destabilize both the last Federal election and the ongoing internal affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany." There was "absolutely irrefutable evidence" for this". The so-called "Storm 1516" campaign, which has been running since 2024, is allegedly backed by "reliable information" that the Moscow-based think tank "Center for Geopolitical Expertise" is behind it. The Center is also said to be supported by Russian military intelligence. Its primary aim is to influence democratic elections in the West. (Click the image to read more).
