Nagi said that youth and sport minister spoke about the efficiency of the competition and stressed the necessity of holding international competitions in Azerbaijan. Nagi said that all remained in their opinions after the meeting.
â€œWe regard Armeniansâ€™ coming to our country inexpedient. We are calling all sport communities not to agree to wave Armenian flag, to sound Armenian hymn in our country, and coaches, wrestlers and judges to refuse participate in this Championship,â€ he said.
he underlined that their protest actions will start in Heydar Aliyev International Airport.
â€œArmenian wrestlers will arrive in Baku through Tbilisi-Baku flight on September 15. GLO members will control all the flights landed in Baku that day and take step due to it,â€ he said. /APA/
