Azerbaijan doesn’t want to cede Dagestani village to Russia

An intergovernmental agreement between Azerbaijan and Russia doesn’t envisage creation of enclaves, a spokesman for the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry said.

Commenting on the rally of Dagestan’s Hrah-Uba villagers, who want to be under Russia’s jurisdiction, Elkhan Polukhov noted that “all settlements within the territory of Azerbaijan belong to our country, but not to Russia.”
