During the meeting, the issue of unacceptable expressions used in his interview to the Armenian media against the state and people of Azerbaijan by Vitaly Milonov, a member of the Russian State Duma from the ruling “United Russia” party was raised before the Chargé d'Affaires and such behavior by the member of the Russian State Duma was condemned.

It was also noted that the next provocative step taken by the member of the Russian State Duma V. Milonov against Azerbaijan is completely contrary to the existing high-level relations between Azerbaijan and Russia. It was stressed that Milonov's remarks do not reflect Moscow's official position and that such steps were aimed at damaging relations between the two countries and hindering the implementation of the agreement reached.
