Azerbaijani MFA accuses Russia of being `unfriendly` 

ArmInfo.  The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry has launched an angry tirade against Russia after Azerbaijani MP Azer Badamov was banned from entering the Russian Federation.

As reported by the media, yesterday Badamov, who was heading to  Astrakhan as part of the Azerbaijani delegation, was detained at the  Moscow airport by Russian border guards. They informed Badamov that  he was subject to expulsion from the country, since he was an  undesirable person in Russia.

The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry was outraged that Russia detained  Badamov, who was part of the delegation, "without warning or  explanation." Baku called Russia's actions "an unfriendly step" and  demanded that Russia "clarify this issue."

Badamov had previously distinguished himself by making inappropriate  comments about Russian MP Nikolai Valuev.
