ArmInfo. President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev refused to take part in
the forum ‘Alliance of Civilizations’ to be held on April in Istanbul.

As APA reports referring to unofficial data, Aliyev refused from
participation in the event despite the invitation. The Azerbaijani
president’s refusal from participation in the forum may be considered
as a gesture of protest against preparation of this country for opening
of borders with Armenia.

To recall, Armenia will be represented in the Forum by Foreign Minister
of Armenia Edward Nalbandyan.
