BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 26. USAID has never
been involved in humanitarian activities in the South Caucasus,
Assistant to the President of Azerbaijan – Head of the Foreign
Policy Department of the Presidential Administration Hikmet Hajiyev
said in an interview with Berliner Zeitung, Trend reports.
According to him, a number of major European media outlets,
including the German press, are conducting targeted propaganda
against Azerbaijan.
The Trump Administration has revealed that USAID, together with
the previous administration, carried out a number of covert
operations, the official noted.
“They financed a number of media outlets in the region and
instructed them to cover the events in Azerbaijan in a negative
light. Now, on the contrary, fewer negative articles are published
about Azerbaijan. Because there are no more people like Samantha
Power, the former head of USAID,” Hajiyev concluded.
