Israel is not commenting on the verdict of blogger Alexander Lapshin, spokesperson for Israeli foreign ministry Emmanuel Nahshon said.

“We do not comment on the issue,” he said in response to Armenian News-NEWS.am inquiry.

Russian-Israeli blogger has been sentenced to three years in jail by Azerbaijani judge.

Spokesperson for Russian president Dmitry Peskov refused to comment on the possible extradition as well.

Earlier on Thursday Lapshin’s lawyer did not rule out his client’s possible extradition to Russia or Israel.

“Lapshin can serve his term in other country, in particular Israel, Russia and Ukraine, as he is a citizen of the mentioned countries. This is permitted by international conventions,” he told RIA Novosti.

After his visits to Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) in 2011 and 2012, blogger and journalist Alexander Lapshin—who is a citizen of Russia, Israel, and several other countries—was “blacklisted” by Azerbaijan.

Azerbaijan issued an international search for this famous blogger. On December 15, 2016, Lapshin was detained in the Belarusian capital city of Minsk, and was later extradited to Baku.
