The religious extremists in Azerbaijan have come forward with threats
towards the participants in "Eurovision-2012", which will be held on
22-26 May in Baku.
To recall, on 7 March the Armenian Public Television officially
informed the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) of their withdrawal
from the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest. Such a decision is not
accidental. Last week several Armenian singers disseminated a statement
about the refusal to participate in the contest, as on 23 February
an Armenian soldier was killed by the Azerbaijani sniper.
The tragedy caused indignation of the Armenian society, including
singers. Many of them said that to take part in the contest after
the murder means to lower their national dignity.
As Interfax reported, the information was placed at one of the islamist
websites, the author of which called "Eurovision-2012" "a frightening
dream for all the Muslims" and added that participants in the contest
will be attacked. Azerbaijani terrorists have taken responsibility
for the attempts to implement terrorist actions in several towns of
the republic.
