Having got no response to the first note, Azerbaijan has sent the
second note of protest to Russia, Day.az reports with reference to the
"Leader" News Service. According to the source, the note was passed
the day before by Azerbaijan’s deputy FM Araz Azimov to the Ambassador
of Russia to Azerbaijan Vasily Istratov.

The reason for discontent was the Great Encyclopedia, published by the
"Tera" Russian publishing house, where it was indicated that Nagorno
Karabakh is an independent republic. The reporting of the Russian
TV channel on Nagorno Karabakh, in which the Azerbaijani party was
displeased by the way Nakhijevan was presented, has become the reason
for the first note of protest.
