Top official: Certain terms agreed over NDI’s activity in Azerbaijan
Certain terms have been coordinated during the meetings with the
National Democratic Institute of the U.S. (NDI), head of the
Azerbaijani Presidential Administration's Social and Political
Department, Ali Hasanov told journalists on Monday.
In accordance with the country's legislation, the above-mentioned
NGO and other international organizations can operate in
Azerbaijan, Hasanov said.
"To this end, they, first of all, should meet requirements of
Azerbaijani laws," he said.
Earlier Azerbaijani Prosecutor General's Office stated that as a
result of the investigation conducted by prosecution bodies, it was
revealed that the Azerbaijani laws on 'Non-governmental
organisations (public associations and foundations)', 'State
Registration of Legal Entities and State Register' and 'Grants'
were violated while the NDI representative office was operating in
Azerbaijan.
Moreover, the NDI violated the conditions of the 'Rules about the
form, content and order of submitting the annual financial report
of non-governmental organisations', approved by the decision of the
Azerbaijani Cabinet of Ministers dated Dec.25, 2009.
