Flags taken down to be…

Azerbaijan has got mixed in flag stories.

After Azerbaijani flags were not brought into the Bursa stadium during the Armenia-Turkey football match, Turkish flags were taken down from the monument to a Turkish soldier kin Baku. Later, however, the Azerbaijani authorities must have realized they had acted wrong and began justifying their actions. Vice-Speaker of the Azerbaijani Parliament Bahar Muradova stated that the Turkish flags had been taken down under the Law on the flags of foreign states and international organizations.

Now, however, they must have forgotten about the “explanation,” and Azerbaijani Consul in Istanbul Sayad Aran stated that the Turkish and Azerbaijani flags had been taken down because of the repair work. “The flags taken down from the monument to the Turk soldier will be hoisted back,” he said.
