It was reported earlier, the official visit of Sergey Aksyonov, the head of Crimea, to Armenia and Abkhazia is planned, said Georgy Muradov, the deputy prime minister of the Crimean Government, permanent representative of the Republic of 

Crimea under the Russian president. "We have agreed that you will be attending a conference in Armenia.  Your visit to Abkhazia is scheduled in the course of the trip to Sochi," Muradov said at the meeting of the Crimea Government, RIA Novosti reports.  According to Muradov, a large Crimean stand will be presented at an international conference to be held in Armenia.  Sergey Aksyonov, in turn, said that after sanctions were imposed on him and the Crimean parliament speaker Vladimir Konstantinov, they have become internal tourists that can travel only in the territory of Russia. "Our right to the free movement has been restricted. Yet, we have been invited to somewhere, it is already good," Aksyonov said.
