阿塞拜疆官员指控Sputnik阿塞拜疆领导人为俄罗斯情报部门工作, Azerbaijani officials accuse Sputnik Azerbaijan's leaders of working for Russian intelligence, not journalism.

阿塞拜疆官员声称,Sputnik阿塞拜疆被捕的领导人不是记者,而是俄罗斯混合战争的工具。 Azerbaijani officials claim that Sputnik Azerbaijan's arrested leaders are not journalists but tools of Russian hybrid warfare. 阿塞拜疆新闻理事会辩称,这些人与俄罗斯的FSB合作,没有从事新闻工作。 The Press Council of Azerbaijan argues that these individuals were collaborating with Russia's FSB, not engaging in journalism. 包括欧盟、英国和美国在内的32个国家对人造卫星的禁令支持这一观点,这些国家视其为假情报工具。 This view is supported by bans on Sputnik in 32 countries, including the EU, UK, and US, which see it as a disinformation tool. 俄罗斯记者联盟的干预呼吁被驳斥为虚伪, The Russian Journalists' Union's call for intervention is dismissed as hypocritical, given Russia's own record on press freedom.
