Western Azerbaijan head rejects dissolution reports as “fake news”

Reports have circulated in recent days claiming that, ahead of the signing of a peace agreement between Baku and Yerevan, organisations linked to Western Azerbaijan — including the Western Azerbaijan Community (WAC) — are set to be dissolved, with preparations already underway.

Western Azerbaijan Community Chairman Aziz Alakbarli rejected the claims in comments to Pravda.az, saying: “This is complete fake news. Such claims come from Armenia. The Western Azerbaijan Community will issue a statement on the matter.”
