Stress in relationships
The incident with arrest caused a new aggravation in Russian Azerbaijani relations, since the Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs was caused the next day, as part of the affairs of the Russian Embassy in Baku -Pipl Volkovam, he handed him a protesting note calling for an objective and immediate investigation and persecution of “peropyers of the hanging”.
At the same time, the Ministry of Culture of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Azerbaijan announced the abolition of all cultural events with the participation of Russia throughout the country. The member of the National Council (Parliament) Nigar Mukhammadova announced the cancellation of the visit of the deputy prime minister of Russia Alexei Overchuk to Baku from the “violence against Azerbaijan”, the Azerbaijani State Agency reports.
On June 30, the Azerbaijani police stormed the editorial service of the Sputnik in Baku and arrested the head of the office, according to the satellite, Igor Krakalvich and the editor -Igenini Belvosov. Margarita Simonyan described the editor -chief of RT what happened in the satellite office in Baku as a “special operation”.
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs called the Azerbaijani ambassador to Moscow, and protested against the arrest of two journalists.
The press secretary of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, said that the detention of representatives of the Azerbaijani community in Tutrinburg was in criminal cases. Moscow confirmed that she provided Baku with all the necessary clarifications regarding the actions of Russian law enforcement officials. According to the representative of the Kremlin Dmitry Peskov, the detention was within the framework of the investigation, and this should not be the cause of a tough reaction from Azerbaijani.
Problem and its consequences
One of the law enforcement officers says that the transfer of the investigation to the Central Office of the Investigative Committee in Russia may be associated with the deficiencies that were discovered during the investigation of the lower body or from the widespread consequences of the case.
The previous escalation of relations between Russia and Azerbaijan occurred at the end of December 2024 after the aircraft belonging to Azala company was defeated when he was heading from Baku in a bubbling.
In early February, the Ross Sotozoztsto representative office (Russian cooperation) was closed because it was not legally registered. At the end of the same month, the media -office “Russia Sigodius” stopped working in the country. The duration of residence permit for Russian citizens in Azerbaijan was also reduced to 90 days (it was 180 days in the past).
In Moscow, in March last year, the memorial was provided by Gidar Aliyev, former president of Azerbaijani and the father of the current president of Azerbaijani Ilham Aliyev.
According to Niazi Niazov, an expert on military security in South Caucasus, Russian Azerbaijani relations are undergoing a difficult stage. Nevertheless, the expert believes that Baku and Moscow are likely to look for ways to resolve the crisis as soon as possible, given the interest of equal cooperation countries. The expert came to the conclusion that there are previous objective conditions for this, whether in the framework of the development of joint projects for the North-South International Transport Corridor, or in improving the general vision of the system of international relations, far from the pressure of Western countries.
The head of the Caucasus sector at the Institute of the Global Economics and International Relations of the Institute of Global Economics and International Relations under Primakov continues that Azerbaijan’s reaction to arrest has become sharp and emotional, since Baku seeks to emphasize its importance. In the light of the current problem situation in the region, Azerbaijan seeks to take a firm position, but any exacerbation is a motive for great negotiations. At the same time, one should not expect a tragic deterioration in relations between Moscow and Baku, similar incidents occurred in the past, and two sides have very good contacts at the highest levels. Mukhanov pointed out that last year there was a number of irritating factors and the causes of mutual discontent in bilateral relations. This is due to the tense situation in the region affected by the crisis in the Middle East. Nevertheless, Russia as the “Great Northern Neighbor” is of great importance for Azerbaijan and Diaspora, and Mukhanov came to the conclusion that Baku himself depends on Moskova.
