Interfax, Russia
June 13 2013
The Spanish Foreign Ministry said in reply to Azerbaijan's protest
note that opera star Montserrat Caballe's visit to the occupied
Azerbaijani territories does not reflect Spain's official position,
a diplomatic source told Interfax.
Spain recognizes Azerbaijan's territorial integrity and supports the
international community's efforts toward peaceful settlement of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the source said.
Caballe visited occupied Azerbaijani territories and gave concerts
there in early June. The Azeri Embassy to Spain issued a note of
protest to the Spain Foreign Ministry, saying that the singer may
not be granted an Azeri visa for unlawfully visiting the occupied
Azeri territories.
Azerbaijan officially declares foreign nationals visiting its occupied
territories personae non gratae.
