Placido Domingo Jr. new candidate for Azeri black list November 18, 2013 - 16:09 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno Karabakh President met with world famous singer Placido Domingo Jr., the son of tenor and philanthropist Placido Domingo November 17. At the meeting, Bako Sahakyan thanked the artist for performing a concert in Artsakh, and contributing to the cultural life of the Republic. As usual, the Azeri Foreign Ministry launched an "investigation" over the singer's visit to Karabakh. In this context, the Ministry spokesman Elman Abdullayev reiterated the principal position of Azerbaijan that any visit to Karabakh, uncoordinated with Azerbaijan, is illegal. On the positive side, Azeri black list is easy to get into and it’s easy to be taken off it. Last week, the earlier blacklisted popular Italian singer Al Bano was “rehabilitated.” On August 2, Azeri Foreign Ministry published the notorious blacklist, which includes Slovak politician Frantişek Mikloşko, Argentinean parliamentarian Jose Arbo, Russian expert Andrey Areshev, Baroness Caroline Cox, opera star Montserrat Caballé and many other famous personalities.
