ЕС призывает Азербайджан срочно пересмотреть все случаи лишения свободы, связанные с осуществлением основных прав

В заявлении, опубликованном представителем Европейской службы внешних действий, ЕС поднял вопрос журналиста Афгана Мухтарли, вынесенный ему недавно приговор и его предполагаемое похищение в Грузии.

В заявлении говорится:

Шестилетний приговор, вынесенный азербайджанскому журналисту Афгану Мухтарли судом 12 января, рождает серьезные вопросы в отношении осуществления основных прав, в том числе свободы выражения мнений и средств массовой информации и надлежащей правовой процедуры в Азербайджане.

"Предполагаемое похищение Мухтарли в Грузии, сопровождаемое его арестом и судебным преследованием в Азербайджане, требует тщательного и прозрачного расследования."

"Все случаи лишения свободы, связанные с осуществлением основных прав, должны быть в срочном порядке пересмотренны Азербайджаном, а затем все имеющий отношение лица в соответствии с международными обязательствами Азербайджана должны быть освобождены", - говорится в заявлении.

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou ousted after just nine months in office

Legislators toppled France’s government in a confidence vote on Monday 8 September, a new crisis for Europe’s second-largest economy that obliges President Emmanuel Macron to search for a fourth prime minister in 12 months. Prime Minister Francois Bayrou was ousted overwhelmingly in a 364-194 vote against him. Bayrou paid the price for what appeared to be a staggering political miscalculation, gambling that lawmakers would back his view that France must slash public spending to rein in its debts. Instead, they seized on the vote that Bayrou called to gang up against the 74-year-old centrist who was appointed by Macron last December.
