Well-known Russian businessman German Sterligov, whose recently settled in Nagorno-Karabakh with his wife and children, has commented on the fact that the Prosecutor’s Office General of Azerbaijan has brought charges against him.

“The answer to the question why the Azerbaijani hysteria emerged toward me and my family can be found in the From Grozny to Putin history textbook, which is posted on my Sterligoff.ru website.

“[As a result,] it will be clear why the 5th column in the RF [i.e. the Russian Federation] also assists the Azerbaijan Prosecutor’s Office.

“I will give more detailed comments on this matter in several weeks,” Sterligov specifically wrote on his VKontakte social network account.

The Russian businessman signed his message as follows: “President of the Association of Ancient Book-writing Enthusiasts, from ancient Armenian City of Shushi.”

The Prosecutor’s Office General of Azerbaijan has launched criminal proceedings against German Sterligov, and on several charges including “illegal border crossing,” which refers to his moving to Nagorno-Karabakh.
