Image of stereotype Armenians, living alone in Nagorno-Karabakh, break down

The Armenian community of Nagorno-Karabakh's denial to take part in the dialogue with the Azerbaijani community in Berlin testifies to the fact that stereotyped Armenians, living alone in Nagorno-Karabakh, gradually decline, Azerbaijani political analyst, MP Rasim Musabayov said.

"The non-participation of the Armenian Nagorno-Karabakh community at the meeting showed that the Armenians are aware that these meetings destroy the myths that they seem to be alone," he said today.

The Dialogue Forum - Nagorno-Karabakh meeting of Azerbaijanis and Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh was held in Berlin on November 28. Despite the representatives of the Armenian community of Nagorno-Karabakh agreeing to take part, they didn't turn up.

Mr Musabayov said that the meeting was aimed at changing the German public's misconception that is there is only an Armenian community in the Nagorno-Karabakh which wants to secede, whilst Azerbaijan does not want this to happen.

The Armenian community of Nagorno-Karabakh's denial from the dialogue shows that Azerbaijan managed to break down these stereotypes. Representatives from Armenia, such as human rights activists, as well as Armenians who live and work in Germany, German experts including the German former representative in the OSCE Minsk Group and authoritative experts on the South Caucasus took part.
