Medvedev denies knowledge of Azarov's whereabouts
SOCHI. Feb 24 (Interfax) - I have no information about the whereabouts of Ukraine's ex-prime minister Mykola Azarov, Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said, noting Azarov's right to choose his place of residency.
"I have no such information. If I have, I will definitely share it with you," Medvedev said in Sochi, responding to a question posed by Interfax.
"Each person has the right to choose their residency, including the former Ukrainian prime minister," the Russian prime minister said.
The leader of the Party of Regions parliamentary faction, Oleksandr Yefremov, is not aware of Azarov's whereabouts either.
Azarov left for Russia, a source in law enforcement agencies said earlier. There has been no official confirmation of this information.
