/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Director General of the Public Television Company
(OTV) of Azerbaijan, that was founded yesterday, Ismail Omarov stated
that programs in the Armenian language will be aired at the OTV. He
added that the final decision over the issue will be passed after a
study of the public opinion is held. In case the society supports the
idea, in his words, OTV will broadcast a program in Armenian.
“Karabakh Armenians are citizens of Azerbaijan. We are going to
provide a special status to them. Citizens of Azerbaijan should know
about the processes in the country and state development not through
hearsay. After they get to know about this development, they will
come against Armenian occupation themselves,” he said. As I. Omarov
noted, programs in Armenian can be aired before settlement of the
Karabakh conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia, too, reported IA
Regnum.
