    United Nations A/72/148–S/2018/843 General Assembly Distr.: General Security Council 17 September 2018 Original: English General Assembly Security Council Seventy-second session Seventy-third year Agenda items 35 and 40 Protracted conflicts in the GUAM area and their implications for international peace, security and development The situation in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan Letter dated 11 September 2018 from the Permanent Representative of Azerbaijan to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General Upon instructions from my Government, I have the honour to transmit herewith the records of violations of the ceasefire by the Republic of Armenia in June, July and August 2018 (see annexes I, II and III).* During the reporting periods, the armed forces of Armenia violated the ceasefire regime 2,701, 2,745 and 2,280 times, respectively, and continued to use large-calibre guns and heavy weaponry from their positions in the occupied territories of the Republic of Azerbaijan and in the territory of the Republic of Armenia. The continuous military occupation of the territories of Azerbaijan by the armed forces of Armenia, accompanied by ethnic cleansing and the displacement of more than 1 million Azerbaijanis, is the major impediment to peace, security and development in the region. A political solution to the conflict can only be reached after the complete and unconditional withdrawal of the Armenian armed forces from the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. I should be grateful if you would have the present letter and its annexes circulated as a document of the General Assembly, under agenda items 35 and 40, and of the Security Council.

  • Azerbaijan 2018 International Religious Freedom Report
    AZERBAIJAN 2018 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution stipulates the separation of state and religion and equality of all religions. It also protects the right of individuals to express their religious beliefs and practice religious rituals, provided these do not violate public order or public morality. The law prohibits the government from interfering in religious activities, but it also states the government and citizens have a responsibility to combat “religious extremism” and “radicalism.” The law specifies the government may dissolve religious organizations if they cause racial, national, religious, or social animosity; proselytize in a way that “degrades human dignity”; or hinder secular education. Following a July attack on the then head of the city of Ganja Executive Committee, security forces killed five and arrested more than 60 individuals whom authorities said were part of a Shia “extremist conspiracy” involving at least some members of the Muslim Unity Movement. Local human rights groups and others stated that the government continued to physically abuse, arrest, and imprison religious activists. The government had reportedly imprisoned 68 religious activists at the end of the year, compared with 80 in 2017. Authorities detained, fined, or warned numerous individuals for holding unauthorized religious meetings. According to religious groups, the government continued to deny or delay registration to minority religious groups it considered “nontraditional,” disrupting their religious services and fining participants. Groups previously registered but which authorities required to reregister continued to face obstacles in doing so. Authorities permitted some of these groups to operate freely, but others reported difficulties in trying to practice their faith.

  • Freedom of Expression in a Religious Context
    Table of Contents Freedom of expression in a religious context Conscientious objection to military service: Jehovah’s Witnesses win their case Large fine amid continuing religious censorship Censorship case to join 41 other ECtHR cases? Appeal court upholds couple's massive fines Appeals fail against illegal raids, fines Book censorship appeal still in Supreme Court As hijab spreads in Azerbaijan, covered women complain they can’t find jobs Current situation of Jehovah’s Witnesses Freedom of expression in a religious context Conviction of author and editor for article’s remarks on Islam was excessive, breached their freedom of expression Registrar of the European Court (05.12.2019) - www.echr.coe.int - In today’s Chamber judgment in the case of Tagiyev and Huseynov v. Azerbaijan (application no. 13274/08) the European Court of Human Rights held, unanimously, that there had been a violation of Article 10 (freedom of expression) of the European Convention on Human Rights. The case concerned the applicants’ conviction for inciting religious hatred and hostility with their remarks on Islam in an article they had published in 2006. The Court found in particular that the national courts had not justified why the applicants’ conviction had been necessary when the article had clearly only been comparing Western and Eastern values, and had contributed to a debate on a matter of public interest, namely the role of religion in society. Indeed, the courts had simply endorsed a report finding that certain remarks had amounted to incitement to religious hatred and hostility, without putting them in context or even trying to balance the applicants’ right to impart to the public their views on religion against the right of religious people to respect for their beliefs.
