A remarkable admission about an Azerbaijani blogger
 
Letters to the Editor
 
Regarding Vugar Gurbanov's Jan. 26 letter "The real discontent is in Armenia":
 
How remarkable. A counselor for the Embassy of Azerbaijan criticized the lack of attention to the democratic change in Armenia while noting that Azerbaijan has dropped all new charges against Azerbaijani blogger Mehman Huseynov – bogus charges that had led to hunger strikes against continued violations of his (and others') human rights.
