BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 29. In response to the
targeted and extrajudicial killings and acts of violence against
Azerbaijanis based on their ethnicity, demonstratively perpetrated
by Russian law enforcement agencies in the Yekaterinburg region of
the Russian Federation – and considering the systematic nature of
such incidents in recent times – all cultural events planned in
Azerbaijan involving Russian state and private entities have been
cancelled, the Ministry of Culture of Azerbaijan told Trend.
The cancelled events include concerts, festivals, performances,
exhibitions, and similar activities.
It was also noted that citizens who purchased tickets may return
them through the relevant ticket sales points or online
