Yervant1 Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 AZERBAIJANI-AMERICANS: HEYDAR ALIYEV MEXICO MONUMENT INSULT TO AZERBAIJANI AND MEXICAN PEOPLE Azeri ReportOct 3 2012 WASHINGTON. DC. October 3, 2012. Azerbaijani-Americans for Democracy(AZAD) has written a letter to the government of Mexico City regardingthe recent media reports about the monument to the late Azerbaijanidictator Heydar Aliyev that was erected in return for the millionsof dollars the Azerbaijani government paid for renovation of parksin Mexico City. Below is the text of AZAD's letter: "Dear Honorable Head of Government Mr. Ebrard, Honorable Members ofthe Government of Federal District of Mexico, Our organization has learned from the recent news articles in majorinternational media outlets about the monument to the late Azerbaijanidictator and former communist chief and KGB General Heydar Aliyeverected in one of the Mexico City's parks. Mexican public would benefit from knowing that Heydar Aliyev wasnot a founder, but a demolisher of modern Azerbaijani democracy. Bythe time he came to power in 1993 in a Russian-backed military coup,overthrowing the democratically elected government of the country,Azerbaijan was already an independent state for two years. By thattime, Azerbaijan's independence had long been recognized by the UNand all major world powers, including Mexico. What Heydar Aliyev and his cronies have built instead is neo-feudal,corrupt petro-dictatorship where the throne ("presidency") after hisdeath was passed to his son Ilham Aliyev. Under Aliyev dynasty, rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens aretrampled. Journalists, bloggers, dissidents, and civic activists areregularly beaten, jailed and tortured, some are murdered. Peacefulprotests are violently suppressed by police and plain-clothedgovernment agents. All elections are falsified. Just last week,a secret cam video released online revealed how the seats in thenational parliament are not only selected by the President, insteadof being elected by voters, but also are sold by the regime leadershipfor million dollar bribes. While the vast majority of the population, in spite of Azerbaijan'senormous oil revenues, is still poor, Ilham Aliyev's eleven yearsold son owns a $40 million dollar luxury mansion in a Dubai resort. President Aliyev's family, through secretive off-shore firms, has takencontrol of the country's largest banks, gold mines, phone companies,and other enterprises. These and many other shameful facts about the Aliyev dictatorshipare well-documented in reports by the international media, humanrights organizations and foreign governments, and can be discoveredby a simple Google search. This corrupt, repressive system is thereal legacy of Heydar Aliyev. What he founded is hardly worth ofcommemoration in a free society governed by basic moral norms. Perhaps the government of Mexico City feels obliged to show anappreciation for the multi-million dollars help provided by theAzerbaijani authorities. As generous as it may be, that donationis but a small drop in the bucket of billions stolen by the Aliyevregime from regular citizens. Therefore, as a sign of gratitude to theAzerbaijani people, whose money given was given for the renovationof your parks, I humbly suggest that a simple pole with Azerbaijaniflag along with the statement of appreciation of Mexican-Azerbaijanifriendship would suffice. Heydar Aliyev was not a noble man that deserves to be honored inpublic parks and squares. Having his monument erected in Mexico Cityis an affront to the Azerbaijanis that suffer at the hands of hiscorrupt dictatorship and it can only be an insult to Mexicans whovalue their own nation's long-established traditions of freedom,human rights and dignity, and justice."

Yervant1 Posted October 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 STATUE OF AZERBAIJAN'S STRONGMAN THE STRING ATTACHED TO FOREIGN AID Washington TimesOct 3 2012 MEXICO CITY - The appearance of a life-size statue of Azerbaijan's"founder of the nation" on Mexico City's elegant Reforma Avenue,not far from Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln and Mexico's nationalheroes, is raising eyebrows and protests. The Stalin-esque, bronze statue of Geidar Aliyev, the lateauthoritarian leader of the Caucasus republic, carries a plaque callinghim "a brilliant example of infinite devotion to the motherland,loyal to the universal ideals of world peace." The monument erected in late August shows Aliyev sitting in a bronzechair in front of what appears to be an enormous, white marble mapof Azerbaijan. "It is really out of place," said Miguel Angel Mendoza, an 18-year-oldhigh school student who was walking past the monument to the longtimeruler, who led Azerbaijan first as Communist Party boss during Soviettimes and then as president from 1993 to 2003. "Why couldn't theyput up a monument to somebody who did something good?" It turns out that Azerbaijan contributed much of the $5 million itcost to renovate not one, but two Mexico City parks, allowing it toput monuments in both. Critics say that Aliyev, who stifled dissent, shouldn't be on aboulevard decorated with statues to Mexican and foreign heroes. "They probably have a warehouse full of these things somewhere" inAzerbaijan, said Daniel Gershenson, human rights activist who wasone of about a dozen protesters who demonstrated last week in frontof the monument, holding banners that read "Get rid of the dictator!" "It's like a personality cult, transferred to Mexico," said writer andactivist Homero Aridjis, who described the style as "social realismfrom the Soviet era. "It's as if they brought a dictator from Mars," Mr. Aridjis said. "Arewe going to be a center for monuments to dead dictators? Who's next? Hitler? Stalin?" It wouldn't be the first time that Azerbaijani PR efforts havedrawn criticism. Rights groups protested Azerbaijan's hosting ofthe Eurovision song contest, and the radical feminist group Femenprotested its hosting this year's European Cup soccer championship. Azerbaijan's ambassador to Mexico, Ilgar Mukhtarov, wrote thatAzerbaijan has lavished attention on Mexico because it was one ofthe first countries to recognize Azerbaijan after the breakup of theSoviet Union. "This monument is not intended to improve anybody's reputation,because the world's perception of Heydar [Geidar] Aliyev does notrequire any rescuing," Mr. Mukhatarov said. Aliyev's monument is surrounded by a manicured lawn and flower beds,and many people like the new park. Brenda Torres, a 33-year-old architect, was relaxing on one of thefour benches installed in front of the monument. "The people who come here, they like it, right, but they don't knowwho he is," said Ms. Torres. And that's the secret to Aliyev's success - nobody really knows whohe is. A second Azerbaijani statue appears in the other park they paid torenovate, Tlaxcoaque park in downtown Mexico City. It depicts a woman, her arms uplifted in mourning, commemoratingKhojaly, a village where hundreds of Azerbaijanis reportedly werekilled during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Advocates say a monument to Mexican suffering would have been moreappropriate for a site once used as a police interrogation andtorture center. The office of Mexico City Mayor Marcelo Ebrard, who accepted thedonations and attended the inauguration of both sites, did notimmediately respond to requests for comment. But at the inauguration of the first monument, Mr. Ebrard said"we are very thankful to the Republic of Azerbaijan, because thetruth is we haven't received an investment this big" from a foreigngovernment before. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/oct/3/statue-of-azerbaijans-strongman-the-string-attache/#ixzz28Hhu9uwW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yervant1 Posted October 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 LATE AZERBAIJAN LEADER'S STATUE RAISES HACKLES IN MEXICO Agence France PresseOctober 25, 2012 Thursday 4:02 AM GMT Surrounded by flowers and palm trees off Mexico City's main avenue,the statue of Azerbaijan's late leader looks peaceful in a corner ofthe noisy and polluted capital's biggest park. But rights activists are fuming like angry motorists over the additionof the bronze likeness of Heydar Aliyev, a former KGB man, in a citythat boasts statues of revered world figures like Mahatma Gandhi,Winston Churchill and Martin Luther King. The new statue features Aliyev sitting with legs crossed, gazing tohis left, and a plaque describing him as "a great politician andstatesman" who was a "shining example of infinite devotion to thehomeland and loyalty to the universal ideals of world peace." While supporters remember him as the father of Azerbaijan'sindependence from the Soviet Union, critics recall him as the strongmanwho cracked down on dissent, jailed opponents and stifled the mediaduring his 1993-2003 rule. Aliyev's son Ilham succeeded him. "To put on our main avenue the statue of a dictator, someone whoviolated human rights, is an offense to us," Mexican rights activistJesus Robles Maloof said. Maloof, one of many people who vented on Twitter, urged Mayor MarceloEbrard to yank the statue from the fabled Chapultepec Park, off thebusy Reforma Avenue, and replace it with a monument honoring thepeople of Azerbaijan. One Twitter user named Isabel Aguilar suggested: "If they put a statueof Aliyev on Reforma, I propose that they put one of Kim Jong-il orVladimir Putin, no?" The government of Azerbaijan paid around $5 million (3.8 millioneuros) to refurbish that corner of Chapultepec, which was named the"Mexico-Azerbaijan Friendship Park," and another downtown park. Azerbaijan's ambassador to Mexico defended the decision to erectthe statue. "He is the father of the nation, a symbol of Azerbaijan and ourindependence," Ambassador Ilgar Mukhtarov said. "He was not a dictator." The seeds of friendship between the two nations were planted whenAliyev, then a Soviet official, led a USSR delegation that visitedMexico in 1982, he said. Mexico was one of the first nations torecognize Azerbaijani independence. Mukhtarov blamed the bad publicity over the statue on "the Armeniandiaspora" -- Azerbaijan fought Armenia-backed separatists inNagorny-Karabakh -- and "people here trying to damage relationsbetween Azerbaijan and Mexico." Facing a storm of criticism over the statue, the city's leftistmayor created a panel of experts who will review complaints and makesuggestions on what to do with it. The panel will also review a plaque in the second park, whichuses the politically sensitive word "genocide" to describe thekilling of Azerbaijanis in the village of Khojaly during the 1990sNagorny-Karabakh conflict with Armenia. "It's better to put this in the hands of international relationsexperts," said Felipe Leal, the city's urban development secretary. Mayor Ebrard inaugurated the "friendship" park in August but negativeheadlines soon followed about the statue, which sits on an avenuethat includes the golden Angel of Independence statue and monumentsto national heroes. On a recent sunny weekday morning, the few Mexicans who sat on thebenches placed in front of the statue knew little, if anything, aboutAzerbaijan's history or the late president gazing into the distance. "It's well cared for, very peaceful. I like it, but to tell you thetruth I don't know him," Armando Monroy, a 45-year-old car messenger,said after listening to some music on one of the iron benches. The statue's presence "is strange," he said. "He's not known likeGandhi." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yervant1 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/feedarticle/10543274 Mexico panel rejects Azerbaijan leader's statueAP foreign, Friday November 23 2012 MARK STEVENSON Associated Press MEXICO CITY (AP) - A commission of intellectualsrecommended Friday that Mexico City's government remove a life-sizebronze statue of Azerbaijan's former president that provoked a stormof criticism after it was installed on the capital's main boulevard. The Stalinesque statue of the late Geidar Aliyev was erected by theAzerbaijani Embassy, which paid for the renovation of part of the citypark where it sits and other public works totaling about $5 million.Aliyev has been criticized for repressing opponents and critics. The commission of three writers and analysts appointed by the citygovernment said authorities erred by accepting money to allow aforeign government to essentially decide which political figures orhistoric events should be commemorated in the capital's public spaces. "In view of the majority opinions of the citizens and neighbors, thesculpture of Geidar Aliyev should be removed from the emblematic spot"on the Reforma boulevard, commission member Guillermo Osorno said. The panel suggested that a citizen board be set up to review suchproposals in the future. "We believe that monuments or street names that are offensive,hurtful, or which make unilateral judgments on international disputesshould not be installed in public spaces," Osorno said. Protesters have said they are offended by a monument to anauthoritarian figure like Aliyev, who led Azerbaijan first asCommunist Party boss during Soviet times and then as president from1993 until his death in 2003. Critics' anger has been amplified by a plaque on Aliyev's statue thatdescribes him as "a brilliant example of infinite devotion to themotherland, loyal to the universal ideals of world peace" and by thelocation of the statue not far from monuments to Mahatma Gandhi,Abraham Lincoln and Mexico's national heroes. Azerbaijani Ambassador Ilgar Yusif oglu Mukhtarov said that althoughhe didn't agree with some of the commission's recommendations, hewould discuss them with city authorities to find a resolution thateveryone agreed with. Mukhtarov charged that the government of Armenia, with whichAzerbaijan has tense relations, and local Armenians were behind thecampaign to remove Aliyev's statue. "We are aware that the current situation was driven by the Armeniangovernment and the Armenian local diaspora in an attempt to discreditthe work, life and dedication of Azerbaijan's national leader,"Mukhtarov said a news conference. Last month, the embassy suggested in a statement that removing thestatue could affect diplomatic relations. It said the city governmenthad signed an agreement stipulating the monument should be allowed toremain in the spot for 99 years. The city government's press office said authorities hadn't made adecision yet on whether to follow the commission's recommendation. Mayor Marcelo Ebrard was somewhat evasive, saying, "We are going toreview it carefully ... and we will reply." Osorno, however, said the city government has already offeredAzerbaijan a cultural center where the statue could be displayedindoors. That "would be more appropriate," he said. The issue was particularly thorny because the city government pridesitself on its progressive policies and respect for human rights. Someofficials have suggested authorities weren't really aware of whoAliyev was when the monument was approved. The advisory commission also recommended that a secondAzerbaijani-funded monument in the downtown Tlaxcoaque plaza bechanged. That statue depicts a woman, her arms uplifted in mourning,commemorating Khojaly, a village where hundreds of Azerbaijanis werereportedly killed during Azerbaijan's conflict with Armenia over theNagorno-Karabakh region. The commission said a plaque on the monument calling it "genocide" wasmisleading. Genocide is a term more commonly applied to the killing ofabout 1.5 million Armenians in the region in 1915. Moreover, the Tlaxcoaque plaza was the site of a police torture anddetention center that collapsed in Mexico City's 1985 earthquake. Thecommission said it would be more appropriate to commemorate Mexicanswho died there. "We think this space should be dedicated to the victims of forceddisappearance, torture and execution," Osorno said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yervant1 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 Mexico is planning to dismantle the statue of dictator Heidar Aliyev.Baku threatens with suspending ties 17:32, 23 November, 2012 YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS: Azeri Ambassador to Mexico IlgarMukhtarov has declared that in case of dismantling Heydar Aliyev'smonument in Mexico Azerbaijan will apply to the court. As reports Armenpress Mexican `Reform' newspaper wrote on thisoccasion that Mukhtarov had referred to the agreement signed on August26, 2011 according to which Aliyev's monument should be installed inChapultepec Park, which is Mexico's own Central Park. In the interviewwith Mexican La Razon newspaper Ambassador threatened `If MexicanMunicipality decides to remove the monument Azerbaijan will suspendits diplomatic relations, close the Embassy and stop 4 billion dollarinvestment' which according to him `will be shameful for Mexicans'. Ambassador declared that they are not expecting a positive result fromthe special committee on this issue as the goal of the committee wasinitially known and that some members of the committee were initiallyagainst the installation of Aliyev's statue. `The decision of MexicanPrime Minister is very important for me because the future ofrelations between Azerbaijan and Mexico depends on it' Mukhtarov said. For installing Aliyev's monument in Mexico Azerbaijani government hasspent about 5 million dollars on the renovation of Mexican parks. Earlier the New York Times has reported that when the mayorinaugurated a pretty little garden fronted by a very large statue atthe edge of the central Chapultepec Park last summer, it seemedanother step forward in his drive to improve the quality of life inthis impossible city. But a quick check on Google might have sparedMayor Marcelo Ebrard from what happened next. Speaking off the cuff, the mayor praised the statue's subject - acomplete stranger to many Mexico City residents - as `a greatpolitical leader, a statesman.' The statue portrays Heydar Aliyev, whoruled Azerbaijan with a stern hand after the breakup of the SovietUnion. A K.G.B. general and Communist Party boss, who died in 2003,Mr. Aliyev made himself the center of a cult of personality, his imagegracing villages across the tiny country. But the statue - a gift, along with the garden, from Azerbaijan - hasput the mayor in a bind. The United States State Department repeatedlypointed out Azerbaijan's poor human rights record under Mr. Aliyev,which included serious abuses and the suppression of democracy. A fewweeks after his bronze figure materialized along Mexico City's Paseode la Reforma, newspaper columnists, radio hosts and human rightsactivists began to press for its removal. `In Mexico City, on our main avenue, our Champs Élysées, there arestatues of Gandhi, Churchill - and Aliyev,' said Denise Dresser, awriter and academic who sits on a citizens' commission that overseesprojects for Chapultepec Park, which is Mexico's own Central Park.(Gandhi is actually a few hundred paces inside the park, in a morecontemplative spot.) Officials in Mr. Ebrard's cabinet were tongue-tied. They argued thatit was not Mexico's place to pass judgment on other countries'leaders. That unleashed a spate of commentary in which writers threwout the names of undesirable strongmen who might one day find apedestal on Mexico City streets under such reasoning. (Pinochet!Mubarak!) Mr. Ebrard looked for a way to stem the damage that is tarnishing theend of his term. The mayor, who has been open about his presidentialambitions in 2018, will hand the city over next month to a successorfrom his own left-wing party, whose landslide win this summer waswidely seen as a vote of approval of Mr. Ebrard's stewardship. `It's a mistake, and we should have evaluated that this could beproblematic,' Mr. Ebrard said.

Yervant1 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 AZAD LETTER SUPPORTS THE REMOVAL OF HEYDAR ALIYEV STATUE FROM MEXICO CITY http://azerireport.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3787&Itemid=53 WASHINGTON. November 28, 2012. Azerbaijani-Americans for Democracy(AZAD) has sent a new letter on November 27 to the government ofMexico City, supporting the decision of the committee of Mexicanintellectuals that the giant broze statue of the Azerbaijani dictatorHeydar Aliyev be removed from the city's public park. In his letter, AZAD's chairman Elmar Chakhtakhtinski says that he was"dismayed" by the Azerbaijani government's response to the MexicoCity committee's removal recommendation. The Azerbaijani authoritiespublicly threatened Mexico with closing down the Azerbaijani embassythere and canceling oil industry investments. The letter calls thesethreats "bullying tactics" and expresses hope that the Mexican sidewill not allow the Azerbaijani regime to dictate the residents ofMexico City what they can do in their own parks. The letter identifies Heydar Aliyev an "enemy of democracy" responsiblefor human rights violations and says those who value freedom willappreciate "a speedy removal of this statue from your beautiful city". This is the second letter from AZAD to the Mexico City officials. Thefirst letter was sent on October 3rd. Below is the full text of the letter: Dear Head of Government Ebrard,Dear Secretary Leal, Dear Members of the Government of Mexico City,On behalf of my organization and all like-minded people, I would liketo applaud the principled and honorable decision of the committeeformed by the Mexico City government, recommending the removal ofthe Azerbaijani dictator Heydar Aliyev's statue from your city's park. I am dismayed that the Azerbaijani government responded to yourcommittee's decision by publicly trying to threaten Mexico with takingback the money spent on park renovations, closing down Azerbaijaniembassy and canceling oil industry investments. Fortunately, the sympathy and goodwill of the world's free people ismuch stronger, both morally and materially, than the power and moneyof all the corrupt dictatorships combined. I am confident that the government of Mexico City will not beintimidated by such bullying tactics of the Azerbaijani authorities,and the proud residents of your city will not allow a foreign regimeto dictate whose monuments they should keep in their parks. As I mentioned in my previous letter, Heydar Aliyev was not a nobleman that deserves to be honored in public parks and squares. He was anenemy of democracy and responsible for rampant corruption and severeviolations of human rights and freedoms of the Azerbaijani people. As someone who grew up in Azerbaijan and also was lucky to learnabout Mexico and its people first-hand, I humbly suggest that thegood people in both Mexico and Azerbaijan, who value liberties andrights of fellow human beings, would appreciate a speedy removal ofthis statue from your beautiful city. Sincerely, Elmar Chakhtakhtinski Chairman Azerbaijani-Americans forDemocracy (AZAD) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yervant1 Posted December 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 APA, AzerbaijanNov 24 2012 Azeri authorities warn Mexico over plans to remove statue [Translated from Azeri] Azerbaijan may take its embassy and investment projects elsewhere,officials have said as Mexican authorities discuss removing the lateAzerbaijani president's statue from the central park in Mexico City. In an interview with the APA news agency on 24 November ElmanAbdullayev, spokesman for the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry, said thatthe statue to Heydar Aliyev is a symbol of friendship and implied thatthe Armenian diaspora was at work. "One gets the impression that theArmenian diaspora is tapping into all resources and connections inorder to hinder the communication of Azerbaijan's realities to theworld," the agency quoted him as saying. Abdullayev said that as a strong regional state Azerbaijan isattractive for many countries. "Along with investing in othercountries, Azerbaijan is itself interested in investing abroad. Webelieve that it is important to preserve such partnership relations." The statue to Heydar Aliyev, who is the father of incumbent PresidentIlham Aliyev, was erected in the park refurbished with the funds ofthe Azerbaijani embassy in the country and the relevant contractstates that the statue has to remain in the park for 99 years. Earlier, Russia's RIA Novosti quoted the Azerbaijani ambassador toMexico, Ilqar Muxtarov, as saying that if the statue is removed,Azerbaijan may give up on investment projects in Mexico worth 4bndollars. "If the statue is removed, there is no doubt that this willcause bilateral relations to deteriorate. Also the envisagedinvestments will not materialize. The last step will be the closure ofthe Azerbaijani embassy in the country," RIA Novosti quoted him assaying. The Azerbaijani embassy in Mexico represents Azerbaijan in six LatinAmerican countries. Muxtarov said that diplomatic relations will notbe severed, but the embassy may be moved to one of the othercountries. Web user comments A report posted on the Azeri service of Radio Liberty on 24 Novemberattracted 25 user comments as of 29 November. User "Farid": "We must learn this lesson of wisdom from the Mexicanpeople. As Ilham Aliyev said 'This is unacceptable' and together withthis statue, this regime has to be dismantled!!!!!" User "bakili": "I wonder how much kickback the embassy received fromthe 5m dollars spent on the refurbishment of the park in Mexico. Whenthere is money for us sacred issues take the backseat". User "Elvin": "I was happy from my heart for this news. Let the daycome when all statues are removed". User "Faiq": "Let the day come when Heydar's statues in Azerbaijan areremoved..." Four users commented on another report posted on the Radio Libertywebsite on 26 November. User "aysiay": "Four billion dollars are being invested in Mexicobecause the statue of Ilham's father was erected. The nation issinking and perishing, but look at their obsession with the statue". User "Azar": "If a country spends one-fourth of its budget on onestatue we can think of the following: the state is gambling thebudget". User "cenub": "We agree. Let them pay 1m to each household and placeit down our street. We will confirm in notary's office that we willnot demolish it as long as Ilham I is in power".

Yervant1 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 The saga continues!!!!! After Rome, Azerbaijan to install monument to Nizami Ganjavi in Beijing Azerbaijan is going to install a monument to Nizami Ganjavi in Beijing’s Chaoyang Park on the initiative of the Embassy of Azerbaijan in China, Salamnews.org reported.We will remind that Azerbaijan claims that Nizami Ganjavi is an Azerbaijani poet, while Iran says that Persian-language poet Nizami Ganjavi was born in a city that was once part of Iran.Azerbaijan has unveiled a monument to Nizami Ganjavi in Rome recently.Earlier, referring to the fact of Azerbaijan giving a monument to Nizami Ganjavi to Rome, Iranian Deputy Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance Bahman Dari said to Iran’s state-run news agency IRNA, “The existing facts prove that Nizami Ganjavi is an Iranian poet, and there is no need to prove it. It is just unbecoming to misappropriate cultural values of another country. Azerbaijan has no cultural values and therefore it has to misappropriate cultural values of others. This move of Azerbaijan can be called nothing else than a cultural theft.”Chairman of Iran’s Cultural Heritage Organization Mohammad Javad Adabi said to IRNA, “The falsification of the identity of great Iranian poet Nizami Ganjavi is evidence of the poorness of Azerbaijan’s culture.” Source: Panorama.am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The giant statue had raised concerns with citizens and protests from activists who decried the city’s decision to house a statue of a known dictator along such figures as Abraham Lincoln and Mahatma Gandhi.In late November, a three-person panel appointed to investigate the erection of the statue in the city’s Reforma Boulevard recommended that the statue be removed, prompting Azerbaijan’s Ambassador to Mexico Ilgar Mukhtarov to threaten retaliation against the Mexican government, including the closure of Baku’s representation in Mexico.The Azerbaijani Embassy appealed the commission decision to the district court requesting an injunction to stay the decision to remove the statue.In November, Muktarov also said Azerbaijan would cancel $4 billion in investment projects for Mexico, saying if the then Mexico City Mayor Marcelo Ebrard “decides to remove the monument, we will cancel the projects, close the embassy, it would hurt the relationship between the two countries, and it would not be good for his image to be the person who prevented a $4-billion investment http://asbarez.com/App/Asbarez/images/us.pngEnglish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosJan Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Aliyev Removal: Mexico City to relocate late Azeri president’s statue http://armenianow.com/sites/default/files/img/imagecache/600x400/Mexico-City-heydar-Aliyev-statue-park.jpg Mayor of Mexico City Miguel Angel Mancera said that the city government will relocate a life-size bronze statue of Azerbaijan's former president from the capital’s main avenue. Russian news agency RIA Novosti quoted Mancera as saying that the new location of the statue of the late Azerbaijani President Heydar Aliyev will be determined later this week. The relocation costs will be paid from the city budget, he added. In November, an advisory commission issued a recommendation to remove the statue. The rights groups said they were offended by a monument of “dictator” erected in one of the busiest areas in the city. Azerbaijan has paid around $5 million for the renovation of part of Chapultepec Park, where the statue is currently sitting, and other public works. The protesters have objected Aliyev’s statue saying that he was an authoritarian figure, who led Azerbaijan first as Communist Party boss during Soviet times and then as president from 1993 until his death in 2003. Baku warned earlier of damage to Azerbaijan’s relations with Mexico if the statue is removed, including the potential cuts to Azerbaijani investments in Mexico.
