“Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry applied to the Russian embassy to clear up the situation,” he said.

‘Today the Russian embassy said to me that the press release has been removed from the Web site. The press release will either indicate the true name of the city as Khankandi or it will be removed from the Web site at all,” Polukhov said.
