'We started actively addressing this issue after we were elected as chair of the Non-aligned Movement. This was part of our responsibility, because many countries of the Non-aligned Movement suffered from colonialism in the past and suffered a lot and sacrificed millions of lives during the time of colonialism,' said President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev as he addressed the second Shusha Global Media Forum themed 'Unmasking False Narratives: Confronting Disinformation'. 'And some countries still suffer from that. Like Comoro Islands and Mayotte are still under colonial rule, and that was our obligation. We wanted to help these countries to get rid of this disgusting feature of the past,' the head of state emphasized. Source: Azerbaijan State News Agency
