A new law on NGOs, which is expected to be approved shortly, will not bring about problems for non-governmental organizations that are presently functioning and recently established, head of the Presidential Administration Public and Political Department Ali Hasanov stressed out during meeting with journalists on Saturday.
“The new law meets international standards and will encourage the development of international relationships. Before, Azerbaijani NGOs cooperated with foreign colleagues as they whished that. Under the new law, NGOs will cooperate with foreign organizations in accordance with agreements between Azerbaijan and those countries,” Hasanov said.
Hasanov did not share the concern of some NGOs about the new law. “Azerbaijani NGOs of state registration will continue functioning and there is no threat for new founded non-governmental organizations,” Hasanov added.
