Azerbaijan initiated criminal proceedings against two German deputies  for visiting Nagorno-Karabakh

ArmInfo.Azerbaijan initiated criminal proceedings against two German deputies from the party "Alternative for Germany" for visiting Nagorno-Karabakh.

According to Haqqin.az with the link to Schweriner Volkszeitung, this  was stated by the representative of the Azerbaijani Embassy in  Berlin, Vugar Gafarov.

According to him, currently, the embassy checks information about the  visit to Nagorno Karabakh of European deputies who are also deputies  of the parliament of the federal state of Thuringia. They are  included in the "black list" of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of  Azerbaijan and they are prohibited from entering the country. "A  criminal case has been opened and an investigation is under way,"  Gafarov.

We are talking about the deputies of European Parliament Holger Arppe  and Enrique Comninge, who in February this year participated as  observers in the constitutional referendum in Nagorno-Karabakh.

"Such illegal visits to Karabakh do not contribute to a peaceful  settlement of the conflict. Our Foreign Ministry is dealing with this  fact, "Gafarov said.
