Ukraine Deported Azerbaijani Opposition Blogger Elvin Isayev

Ukraine has deported Azerbaijani opposition blogger Elvin Isayev, who is wanted by the Prosecutor-General’s Office, his country’s State Migration Service said in a news release over the weekend, RFEL reports.

The migration service’s press center stated on December 14 that Isayev had "violated Ukrainian migration laws" and was deported two days earlier.

Upon arrival in Azerbaijan, he was placed in a pretrial holding cell on December 14 based on a Baku court ruling from August 22.

The Azerbaijani government statement doesn’t say on what grounds he was arrested and what charges he is facing.

His deportation comes ahead of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s two-day visit to Baku starting on December 16, during which he is scheduled to meet with President Ilham Aliyev.
