    Armenia never took into account Azerbaijan's stance on Armenian songs
    at Eurovision

    YEREVAN. - Head of the Armenian delegation at `Eurovision' Song
    Contest Gohar Gasparyan called Azerbaijani side's statements
    `hackneyed and out-of-dated', according to which if Armenian
    contestant's song contains even the most insignificant Azerbaijani
    tunes, Baku will submit a formal complaint to the organizing
    committee.

    `Every year Azerbaijan makes such statements, this sort of statements
    are quite common. We have immunity to them. Furthermore, they are
    outdated and we are sick and tired of this kind of statements,' she
    noted.

    Referring to the question whether it may serve as ground for Armenia
    not to present a song with oriental tunes to avoid unnecessary
    headaches, Gasparyan said: `Of course, no. Armenia has never taken
    into account Baku's stance on Armenian songs at Eurovision Song
    Contest,' Gasparyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

    As reported earlier, in an interview with vesti.az, member of
    Azerbaijani delegation Leyla Guliyeva said if Armenia's song at
    Eurovision 2012 contains even insignificant Azerbaijani tunes, Baku
    will submit a formal complaint to the organizing committee.
