Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry responds to US Embassy

Spokesman for Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry Aykhan Hajizada has responded to the statement of the US Embassy in Baku, according to SİA.

"The valid judgement against Bakhtiyar Hajiyev is based on multiple evidences in the case, and external intervention on the court procedures are unacceptable," Hajizada said in a post on X.

"Interestingly, while the same type of tax fraud and financial crimes are multiple times severely punished in the United States that might reach up to 30 years of imprisonment, why this country is disappointed with the penalty against such crimes in other countries.

Seems that such an approach is based on political interests rather than raising the importance of rule of law," he said.
