"Before I was appointed as ambassador, I thought this problem could
be solved only in a military way"
Moscow - APA. "All are aware of Karabakh problem, one must not forget
the bloody pages of our history. The young generation will solve this
problem. Before I was appointed as ambassador, I thought this problem
could be solved only in a military way. But there is a notion of
"public diplomacy". I visited Nagorno Karabakh. It was not so easy for
me to see my house in Karabakh. But I understood that we can achieve
something only through this way," Azerbaijani ambassador to Russia
Polad Bulbuloglu said addressing the forum entitled "CIS youth -
future of public diplomacy" in Moscow, APA reports quoting vesti.az.
He said he can not forget the day when the symphony orchestra of the
CIS countries performed in Baku and Yerevan.
"In the past 20 years Azerbaijani musicians have not performed
in Yerevan, Armenian musicians in Baku. The parents of musicians
were anxious when idea appeared to organize these concerts. Then my
colleague Armen Smbatyan and I visited Baku and Yerevan, we were a
kind of guarantor of security of our youth. For the first time young
Armenian musicians saw Baku boulevard, Azerbaijani musicians were
surprised when they were positively met in Yerevan markets. But this
is not important, what is important is that they could listen to each
other, realize the essence of the conflict," he said.
Polad Bulbuloglu said the visit of intellectuals to Karabakh and
Yerevan caused protests in Baku.
"I know that our visits to Karabakh and Yerevan caused protests in
Baku. But we will continue this work, so that our young generation
can solve the Nagorno Karabakh problem," he said.
