"Armenians wanted to raise the flag of separatist regime and sing its
hymn in the concert held in Moscow. But we did not allow them. We
sent a very serious note to Russian Foreign Minister on behalf of
the embassy.
As a result of our reaction all symbols of false state were gathered
from the concert hall," Polad Bulbuloglu Azerbaijani Extraordinary
and Plenipotentiary ambassador to Russia told the APA exclusively.
The ambassador estimated the Armenians’ concert "Golos Artsakha"
in Moscow as diversion.
"This is Armenians’ diversion. Solemn closing ceremony of Russian
year in Azerbaijan was held on December 4. Armenians’ concert in
Moscow aimed to cast shadow on closing ceremony of Russian year in
Azerbaijan. But nothing serious happened in the concert," he said.
The ambassador said that the Azerbaijani students detained during
the event have already been released.
"We had asked the young men not to participate in the event. But
40 students were taken to the police and released after offering
explanation," the ambassador said.
