ANCA: Azeri people deserve better leader than Aliyev

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Washington Post published an article titled “Obama’s former aides profit from their experience” that centers on the U.S. energy projects and Baku-hosted “Azerbaijan-U.S: Look into Future” conference.

Executive Director of Armenian National Committee of America (ANCA) Aram Hamparianwrote in the comment section that Azerbaijani people, as well as the citizens of Nagorno Karabakh Republic, who are constantly threatened by renewal of war by Azeri leaders, deserve more than the parade of the well-paid international politicians invited to Baku.

Mr. Hamparian noted it as a way for Ilham Aliyev to distract international community’s attention from the deteriorating situation and increase in persecutions in Azerbaijan.

Baku conference was attended by President of the World Bank Paul Wolfowitz, former ambassador to Azerbaijan and OSCE Minsk Group co-chair Matthew Bryza, former U.S. envoy to Turkey Ross Wilson, Senator Richard Lugar, CEO of private intelligence corporation STRATFOR George Friedman, as well as representatives of Azeri and Turkish lobbies in the U.S.
