A voice recording has been posted on the internet, and in which an official of Sochi International Airport of Russia explains to an Armenian employee why he was fired.

In the recording it is said that this person was dismissed for signing a letter of protest addressed to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“We don’t like it when people protest. You had to wait and be silent,” the airport official says, claiming that nationality has nothing to do with this.

As reported earlier, the Armenian personnel at Sochi International Airport of Russia recently issued an announcement stating that they were being dismissed because of their nationality.
