The Taekwondo Federation of Armenia has issued a statement saying it is against Armenia’s participation in the European Games to be held in Baku in June. “Considering the absence of diplomatic relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia, the hostile attitude of official Baku towards Armenia and its people, the ongoing violations along the Line of Contact and the continuing subversive acts launched by Azerbaijan that have left many Armenians killed or disabled, we announce that we find our participation in the Baku European Games inexpedient. We find our participation in the games also unacceptable given the fact that Turkey and its junior brother Azerbaijan are organizing fake theatrical shows on the threshold of the Armenian Genocide Centennial,” the federation said in the statement.
