Baku had formally notified Moscow that the Russian Information and Cultural Center, operating under "Rossotrudnichestvo" and known as "Russian House," was not legally registered and had been seriously violating Azerbaijani legislation. Consequently, on February 3, Azerbaijan sent an official note demanding the organization's closure.

The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry emphasized that the operations of foreign organizations in the country must comply with national legislation, reciprocity principles, and bilateral agreements. Following Baku's decision to terminate "Russian House's" activities, Moscow is expected to take corresponding steps.
