Azerbaijan's ANS TV has accused the Euronews TV channel of biased reporting on Karabakh.

Euronews reporters who visited the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh republic referred to the independence of Karabakh and presented its leader, Bako Saakyan, as president of Nagorno-Karabakh.

"The journalists rudely violated the concept of our profession by not mentioning Azerbaijan’s position. Speaking about the need of constant balance, they forgot about the simplest duty of a journalist – impartiality and objectivity,".

Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry is investigating the report, spokesman Elkhan Polukhov said.
