Baku:Azerbaijan has added 31 Turkish citizens to its list of ‘undesirable persons,’ as announced by the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, the decision was made in response to various calls on social media and internet platforms that targeted Azerbaijan’s sovereignty, national security, and constitutional order. These calls included those for the forcible overthrow of the government, violence based on religious radicalism, and incitement of religious hatred and hostility. As a result, the entry of these individuals into Azerbaijan has been prohibited under Azerbaijani legislation.
The Ministry’s statement further emphasized that measures would continue to counteract activities and calls promoting hostility against the Republic of Azerbaijan.
