German Justice Minister rules out politically motivated extraditions to Turkey

YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 2, ARMENPRESS. German Justice Minister Heiko Maas announced that the German side will not make extraditions within the framework of the politically motivated investigations in Turkey, Deutsche Welle reports.
