Construction of a church in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan is nothing but the support of the Armenian separatism and terrorism, head of the Azerbaijani State Committee for the Work with Religious Associations Hidayat Orujov told media, answering a question on the construction of Holy Virgin Protection Russian Orthodox Church in Nagorno-Karabakh.
It is illegal to build the temple in the occupied Azerbaijani territories without the permission of the Azerbaijani side, Orujev said.
The foundation-laying-ceremony of Holy Virgin Protection Russian Orthodox Church was held in the occupied territories of Azerbaijan June 19.
