There still are lots of questions to Azerbaijan's last information
campaign even now that the Azerbaijani Parliament has refuted the
report that it is going to adopt a law
stipulating criminal penalty for Azerbaijani individuals and NGOs that
will cooperate with Armenia before "the occupied territories are
liberated."
"In any case we are going to continue doing what we have done so far.
We are going to organize online interviews with international experts
and to ask them to comment on this situation. It would be a pity to
see cancelled all we have done in the last years - and we have done a
lot. The very fact that Armenians and Azerbaijanis have begun to
contact and to regard each other as human beings rather than beasts is
already a big result, and it would be wrong now to put a barrier to
possible understanding between the two nations," Baghdasaryan said.
She believes that if adopted the abovementioned law would be a blow on
all the projects organized by the Armenian and Azerbaijani communities
so far. "It would be contrary to the interests of both communities",
Baghdasaryan said.
Supported by the British embassies in Armenia and Azerbaijan, Region
Research Center (Armenia) and Peace and Democracy Institute
(Azerbaijan) organize joint online press conferences of experts from
various countries for Armenian and Azerbaijani mass media concerning
urgent problems. The interviews are part of a project aimed to expand
knowledge of Armenians and Azerbaijani about each other and to build
confidence through first-hand information.
