Nazakat Mammadova, an Azerbaijani political commentator sentenced to 13 years for allegedly spying for Russia, argues the charges stem from her trips to Moscow for conferences.
Azerbaijan's State Security Service accused Mammadova of using journalist credentials to collaborate with Russian intelligence, claiming her YouTube channel promoted pro-Russian materials.
Human rights organizations, including the Committee to Protect Journalists, have denounced the charges against Mammadova as politically motivated and fabricated.
Mammadova asserts that the payments she received were merely to cover travel expenses, standing firmly against the accusations related to her journalistic work.
