Reporters' question: Recently, the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Azerbaijan declared some Iranian citizens as undesirables. It is fundamentally unclear what the legal basis of the Azerbaijani government is for the introduction and use of this term. I wanted to know the reaction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Bakos operation.
Foreign Ministry Spokesman: As you mentioned, the term "undesirable element" is fundamentally meaningless, since none of these people were diplomats, nor were they present in the Republic of Azerbaijan. However, the essence of this act is not a friendly action. We have explicitly announced our protest. The Ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaijan in Tehran was present at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our protest was delivered immediately. Also, we will take any necessary action and will notify you as we proceed.
