Assistant to President makes statement about French journalist

"We strongly condemn the harassment and intimidation of French TF1 journalists by the Armenian lobby for their impartial coverage of Armenia's military aggression," Hikmat Hajiyev, Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan - Head of the Foreign Policy Department of the Presidential Administration, said on his Twitter page.

"This is an attack on professional journalism and freedom of speech," he added.

The Armenian community took action on social networks after the French TV channel TF1 reportage about the situation on the frontline, the bravery of the Azerbaijani Army, the targeting of civilians and infrastructure by the Armenian armed forces, and the bombing of Ganja.
