Azerbaijani Diaspora in Germany protests against sale of Karabakh coins by Armenia

12 July 2011 [16:12] - TODAY.AZ
The Central Council of Azerbaijani Diaspora in Germany has sent a letter of protest to Ebay, Emuenzen and Pfalzmuenzen companies operating in Germany demanding to stop the sale of the Armenia-issued coins on Nagorno-Karabakh.

The fact of the sale has recently been revealed by the president of the Central Council on the websites of Ebay, Emuenzen and Pfalzmuenzen.

The coins with a denomination of 1 and 5 drams and 50 luma read: “Nagorno-Karabakh Republic” in the English, “Nagorno-Karabakh Republic” in the Armenian and “Nagornz Karabach” in the German language.

The websites also showed Nagorno-Karabakh as part of Armenia. In its letter, the Central Council of Azerbaijani Diaspora said the actions of Armenians and their attempts to deceive German people and numismatists would simply increase tensions between the two countries. The Central Council demanded the companies to stop the sale of the coins and remove the false information about Nagorno-Karabakh from their websites.
