The new supposed terms for appointment of the Ambassador of the Russian Federation (RF) to Azerbaijan are late September or early October, the charge d’affaires of the Russian Federation in Azerbaijan Petr Burdikin told Trend.
According to him, earlier the Ambassador’s appointment was expected in August, however, due to the fact, that the nominee for the post had not been introduced to the Russian Duma Committee for consultations by the Russia’s President, and the Duma went for summer holidays, the issue remained unsettled, till the deputies come back from the holidays.
The former Ambassador of RF to Azerbaijan Nikolay Ryabov completed his diplomatic mission in 2004.
