MP proposes law banning visits by `undesirable' persons
Baku, June 9, AssA-Irada
Visits by `undesirable' people to Azerbaijan should be prevented and a
relevant law passed, said chairman of Yurddash Party, MP Mais Safarli.
`Visits by undesirable people, such as Vladimir Kazimirov [former Russian
co-chair of the OSCE Minsk Group mediating the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over
Upper Garabagh], should be prevented. But this is currently not regulated by
the legislation. I will raise the issue at the next session of the parliament.'
Safarli said that inviting Kazimirov to the country was aimed at subversion.
`Everything could happen at the event he attended. He could have been beaten,
killed or thrown out of the window.'
The MP added that Armenia could have used possible incidents to disrupt the
ongoing peace talks.
Kazimirov visited Baku to attend the seminar on `The geo-strategic importance
of Azerbaijan' organized by NGOs. His anti-Azerbaijan statements infuriated
the Garabagh Liberation Organization members attending the event.*
