The U.S. Department of State calls on Azerbaijan to respect
\nhuman rights and fundamental freedoms of everyone. Spokesperson for the U.S.
\nDepartment of State Matthew Miller said this with regard to the arrest of a

“So the recent trend of detaining journalists, civil society
\nactivists, and opposition figures in Azerbaijan is deeply troubling. Over a
\ndozen such figures have been detained in just the last month. It’s
\nunacceptable, and we will continue to urge the Azerbaijani Government to
\nrespect the human rights and fundamental freedoms of all, including those
\nexercising freedom of expression, as well as call for the expeditious release
\nof all those who were – have been – who have been unjustly detained,” Miller
\nsaid.
