Baku will "blacklist" Bulgarian lawmakers for visiting Nagorno-Karabakh, APA reports.
Hikmat Hajiyev, spokesman for Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry, told APA on Thursday that the visit of a group of MPs of Bulgaria's Patriotic Front Party to Karabakh is qualified as an attempt to promote the "illegal regime" created as a result of "military aggression". According to him, this illegal visit shows that there are some in Bulgaria who are bothered by strategic friendship and cooperation between Azerbaijan and Bulgaria.
"Unfortunately, Yerevan is busy doing this type of unnecessary acts instead of creating grounds for the comprehensive and substantial talks noted in the Vienna meeting," APA quotes Hajiyev as saying. In this light, the Embassy of Azerbaijan in Bulgaria will express concern to this country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and legislative body, the spokesman said, adding that after necessary specification, these MPs' names will be added to the list of "undesirable persons" of Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry.
To note, on May 25 several Bulgarian lawmakers headed by Bulgaria's Patriotic Front Party leader Valeri Simeonov visited Karabakh and held meetings with the NKR leadership.
