Eliot L.Engel, Democrat on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs statement on the raid at the RFE/RL bureau
"I'm deeply troubled by the recent actions against RFE/RL and its personnel by the government of Azerbaijan. Freedom of the press is a cornerstone of democracy and for generations RFE/RL has been a source of reliable, unbiased news and information across Europe. With the RFE/RL Baku bureau sealed shut by government officials, that source has been silenced and that freedom is under assault."
"Azerbaijan is strategically important country bordering Russia and Iran and a key provider of energy resources. Continuing these actions will serve only to undermine democracy in Azerbaijan. I ruge leaers in Baku to alow RFE/RL to resume its work and to stop harassment of RFE/RL employees."
