In April, the AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships (previously
known as the World Cadet Championships), in which Armenia will also
participate, will take place in Baku.
Armenian Boxing Federation Vice-President Derenik Gabrielyan said that
despite a certain amount of tension in Armenian-Azerbaijani relations,
the tournament is rated and that's why Armenia intends to participate
in the boxing championship in Baku.
Azerbaijan Boxing Federation Vice-President Agajan Abiyev has said
with which route the Armenian team can get to Azerbaijan (as the
border between the two countries is closed) and where they should
stay while in the country.
Gabrielyan said, "The athletes who've won prizes will be worthy of
passes for the matches in Baku. Armenia's delegation will go to Baku
with 5-6 athletes. According to a decision by the Armenian Boxing
Federation Executive Committee, those who have an actual chance of
winning a medal will get drawn into the team. A small delegation,
10 people in all, will leave Armenia for Azerbaijan."
