Azerbaijan did not provide an entry visa to Turkish citizen of
Armenian origin Burack Petikyan who arrived in Baku with the group
of the famous Turkish musician Sertab Erener. In the same plane he
was sent back to Istanbul.
Petikyan told the Turkish "Hyurriet" that what happened to him in
Azerbaijan was racism, and that such position of Azerbaijan is a
direct offence on Turkey. " Baku's position is racist and a shameful
deed against humanity. This action against the Turkish citizen is an
offence on Turkey," said the Turkish Armenian pianist and declared
that he had addressed a letter of protest to the Turkish Ministry of
Foreign Affairs.
