The Azeris have launched a «cultural war» against the organizers of the singing festival «Eurovision» and Greece where the festival is to be organized this year.
The fact that irritated them was the biography of Andre representing Armenia which was represented in the official website of the competition. The problem is that Andre is from Karabakh. «This fact can be evaluated as absence of respect for the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan. It can be deduced from the fact that the organizers of the festival defend the aggressive policy of Armenia», the letter to the organizers of «Eurovision» says, day.az reports.
The Azerbaijani Ministry of Culture found it necessary to remind that the international community has focused its attention on the negotiation process carried out with the OSCE Minsk group, and «such facts» can have a negative influence on the process.
At the end of the letter the Azeri side had voiced hope that the organizers of the competition who contribute to the dialogue of cultures will solve the problem and will display respect for the territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.
