Baku angered by Swedish MPs’ visit to Karabakh

BAKU

Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry has instructed its embassy in Britain,
which is in charge of several countries, including Sweden, to check
whether reports alleging that Swedish MPs had visited Nagorno
Karabakh without Baku’s notification were true.

"Our embassy has been instructed to check these reports and issue a
note of protest if they are true," Azeri Foreign Ministry spokesman
Tair Tagizade told Interfax on Thursday.

Armenian media reported that a Swedish parliamentary delegation led
by Deputy Ulla Hofman had visited Nagorno Karabakh. The delegates
allegedly reached the territory from Armenia.

The delegation reportedly met with Nagorno Karabakh’s Parliamentary
Deputy Speaker Rudik Usnunch.
