Russia Bans Former Azerbaijani Ambassador from Entering the Country for 50 Years

The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs has decided to ban former Azerbaijani ambassador to Belarus, Moldova, and Pakistan, Spandiyar Vagabzade, from entering Russia for 50 years following his derogatory remarks about Russians.

This information was reported to TASS by the press center of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Earlier, State Duma Deputy Speaker Pyotr Tolstoy indicated that Vagabzade referred to Russians as pigs in front of a camera.

The Ministry warned that foreign nationals who call for destructive actions against Russia, its citizens, and compatriots living abroad will not be permitted to enter the country, as their presence in Russia could threaten public order and security.
