Anna Chapman, the Russian-spy-turned-sex-icon, has been sighted in
breakaway Nagorno Karabakh, causing a bit of furor in the region.
Chapman, who since her scandalous arrest and deportation from the
US in 2010 became a reporter with Russia's REN-TV news channel,
arrived in Karabakh on August 26 with a gaggle of Russian journalists
to discuss separatist officials' take on the chances for resolving
their Armenia-backed conflict with Baku over the territory. She is
also reportedly there to work on her TV show series "Mysteries of
the World."
It is unclear what a Russian femme fatale can do to enlighten the
world about the decades-long dispute, but now Azerbaijan is likely
to become another country where she won't be welcome anymore.
Azerbaijan, which routinely blacklists those who visit Karabakh without
its permission, is unhappy to see any celebrity visitors there,
including celebrity spies. Azerbaijan's foreign ministry said that
Chapman and other Russian journalists, who visited Karabakh and met
with separatist officials, will be regarded as personae-non-gratae,
a status to which Chapman must be growing accustomed by now.
