KAREN AVANESIAN WILL NOT BE DEPORTED TO AZERBAIJAN
Hamlet Gasparian, spokesperson of RA Foreign Ministry,
informed that the Armenian side managed to avert the
decision to deport Karen Avanesian to Azerbaijan from
the Great Britain. Regnum Agency informed that 16
years old Avanesian failed to prove that he needs
shelter in the UK. As he was born in Nagorno Karabakh,
the British authorities decided to send him to Baku
via Moscow.
It’s noteworthy that Avanesian’s father was an
Azerbaijani, while his mother is an Armenian. The
Armenian side tried to prove the UK authorities that
Avanesian is to be deported to Armenia and not to
Azerbaijan.
