European Parliament won't send official delegation to Nemtsov's funeral
YEREVAN, 2 MARCH, ARMENPRESS. The official delegation of the European Parliament will most likely not be attending the funeral of Russian oppositionist Boris Nemtsov. “An official representative of the European Parliament will most likely not be attending the funeral of Nemtsov”,” Vice-President of the European Parliament Richard Charnetsky mentioned, as “Armenpress” reports, citing RIA Novosti. According to Charnetsky, that is due to the actions of the Russian government, which recently refused to grant entry visas to two representatives of the European Parliament, as well as to President of the European Parliament Martin Schulz’s “precaution”, who “doesn’t want to create further tension” in relations with Russia.
