Chohraganli deported to New York

He was sent to Dubai and further to the USA. Head of the SANAM's Europe bureau in Turkey Mahmoud Bilgin told APA that at the night of the 9th of June-the fifth day of his stay in Turkey, Chohraganli was deported by the local secret services to Baku from Istanbul.

He was offered several countries to leave for, but he decided to go to Azerbaijan. After 10-hour-stay at the Heydar Aliyev International Airport, the SANAM leader was also deported by the Azerbaijani confidential bodies.

Bilgin regretted for such negligence towards the SANAM leader but he hoped for permanent support from Turkey and Azerbaijan. "South Azerbaijani Turks have always considered Turkey and Azerbaijan as their supporters. However, we could not have thought that our supporters will fear of the Persian regime in the period when Iran is collapsing. We call on these states to back their southern brothers. However, let them not to think that South Azerbaijani Turks will not be able to determine their fortune without their support. We believe the power and will of struggle of 35 million South Azerbaijani Turks," Bilgin underlined.

It is considered that deportations of the SANAM leader were made under Iranian pressure.
