Azerbaijani colleagues fancy they see PanARMENIAN.Net reporters

Vesti.az Azerbaijani agency published a report by Hamid Hamidov on presentation of a book by Mehmet Perincek – “Armenian Cause in 120 Documents of Russian State Archives” - in Moscow Book House.

According to Hamidov, the “cheerful and calm atmosphere” of the presentation was spoiled by a female journalist of PanARMENIAN.Net, who allegedly behaved inadequately.

Naturally, PanARMENIAN.Net is rather “pleased” with the fact that its Azerbaijani colleagues mention the agency for the purpose of anti-Armenian propaganda. However, it should be noted that not a journalist of PanARMENIAN.Net participated in the book presentation or was in Moscow at that time.

Moreover, reporters of the agency possess professional ethics enough for not expressing their opinion or emotions during any event.

Meanwhile, to Vesti.az agency’s credit, it should be noted that after an official letter of the editor of PanARMENIAN.Net with a request to publish disclaimer of this misinformation, the Azerbaijani agency “silently” removed references to the Armenian agency from the report on the book presentation without any reaction.
