Renowned Russian actor, singer, and composer Denis Klyaver had petitioned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) of Azerbaijan, with a request that his name be removed from the “blacklist” of the ministry, reported Vesti.Az news agency.

Klyaver’s petition was considered, and it was decided to take his name out of the Azerbaijan MFA “blacklist.”

Foreigners who visit the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) are “blacklisted” by the Azerbaijani foreign ministry. Nonetheless, the number of visitors to the NKR continues to grow.
