The Azerbaijani authorities restrict the freedom of speech of their journalists and media outlets

Following the offensive of the Azerbaijani side on September 27, the media outlets, contradicting the state propaganda machine do not operate in Azerbaijan, or are partially active there: as an example one may mention the case with Meydan TV. It should be reminded that the Azerbaijani authorities have also blocked a number of social networks.

In fact, the Azerbaijani side puts pressure on freedom of speech.

“Media Advocate” initiative urges the international organizations to be consistent, not to allow restrictions on freedom of speech and pressure on journalists.
