The Azeri Parliament is discussing a bill "On Occupied Territories
of the Republic of Azerbaijan," saying that citizens from countries
having visa-free agreements with Azerbaijan and people that are
not Azeri citizens may enter the "occupied territories" only after
obtaining a visa from the Azeri Foreign Ministry or Azeri embassies
abroad and permits from the Azeri interior and defense ministries.
Those who will break this rule will be held criminally liable.
Though having no such law so far the Azeris have still been very
negative to people visiting Nagorno-Karabakh. As a result a whole
group of artists, writers, scientists, journalists and politicians
have been declared personas non grata in Azerbaijan.
