Azerbaijan, Montserrat Caballe, Nagorno-Karabakh
The Foreign Ministry of Spain replied to the note submitted by
Azerbaijan in connection with the visit of opera singer Montserrat
Caballe to Nagorno Karabakh, Trend agency reports.
"The response of the Foreign Ministry of Spain received by the
Azerbaijani Embassy in Madrid on Tuesday says that such visits paid
on a private initiative do not change the official position of Spain
on this issue," the Embassy told Trend.
The letter notes that Spain supports the efforts of the international
community for a peaceful settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
On June 5, Azerbaijan sent Spain a note of protest in connection
with the trip of the Spanish opera singer Montserrat Caballe to
Nagorno-Karabakh.
Ambassador of Azerbaijan to Spain Altay Afandiyev also requested a
meeting with Montserrat Caballe in order to deliver her a letter of
the Minister of Culture and Tourism of Azerbaijan Abulfaz Garayev.
The letter states that such visits could harm bilateral relations. The
Minister of Culture invites Caballe to visit Azerbaijan.
Azerbaijani ambassador also delivered a letter of the Minister of
Culture and Tourism Abulfaz Garayev to his Spanish counterpart,
which also expressed dissatisfaction with the singer's trip to
Nagorno-Karabakh.
