15 April 2009 [11:52] - TODAY.AZ
Vice president of the National Olympic Committee of Azerbaijan Khazar Isayev has commented on the visit of president of the Armenian National Olympic Committee Gagik Tsarukyan to the capital of unrecognized "Nagorno Karabakh" Khankendi.

I do not accept such a state as "Nagorno Karabakh Republic" and do not understand how Tsarukyan pays an official visit to Khankendi and holds talks on the construction of a sport school where Armenians want to raise up Olympic champions.

This does not correspond to the statements of the Armenian side headed by president Serzh Sargsyan that Armenia bears no attitude to "NKR", then how they invest to Khankendi's sport and want to develop an Olympic movement in this region? This is a pure schovinism", said Isayev in his interview to Azerisport.

A new sport school will appear in Khankendi. The agreement about construction of a sport school was attained during the visit of a delegation, headed by president of the National Olympic Committee of Armenia, deputy of National Assembly, leader of the "Flourishing Armenia" Gagik Tsarukyan to the separatist formation.

"This school will become a good place for our sportsmen, among whom we can select participants of the Olympic games", said he.

Tsarukyan assured that the sport administration of Armenia will help the separatist territorial formation in the issue of specialists.
