Europeans are warned against visiting Azerbaijan, what Baku presents as its diplomatic victoryFebruary 18, 2011 - 16:24 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Recently, some Armenian media wrote with reference to Azerbaijani sources that warnings are placed on websites of various foreign ministries, urging their citizens to refrain from visiting Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijani regions neighboring with Armenia. This information, which is disseminated by propagandistic media of Azerbaijan, is published on front pages of Armenian papers as sensational news without clarification and editing. This can be assessed as another Azerbaijani provocation. In reality, the situation is quite opposite. The matter is that foreign ministries of various countries report on their official websites that they do not advise visiting Azerbaijani regions neighboring with Karabakh and Armenia, as Baku has not withdrawn its snipers from the frontline. Similar reports have been placed long ago, while the Azerbaijani propaganda tries to present them as another victory of the Azerbaijani diplomacy. Armenian media “confirm” it either due to lack of knowledge, or with the aim to escalate the situation. Nevertheless, the number of tourists visiting Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh continues growing, what is proved also by statistics. Several countries advise their tourists to refrain from visiting some regions of Europe as well. Besides, we would like to note that Nagorno Karabakh is mentioned on websites of many countries’ foreign ministries in the section Armenia and nobody even thinks of it as of “part of Azerbaijan.” The government’s ‘advice’ is given to tourists to ensure security of its own citizens.
