Tagiyev said that his father couldn’t think not to return to Azerbaijan.

“He had secondary education. He couldn’t use such words. We think my father was under pressure when he said that didn’t want to return home and planned to go to the third country”.

Tagiyev was interviewed by the Armenian Public Television. News Armenia agency reports that Tagiyev said he didn’t intend to return to Azerbaijan and would like to move to third country if Armenian government wouldn’t allow him to be there.

He said he would like to let his family to know his plans.
