Hosting such an international media forum shows that Azerbaijan is a relevant and valuable partner in global discussions, including in the context of innovations in the media field. Moreover, holding the event here - in Shusha - is also very symbolic, Paolo Liebl von Schirach, President of the Global Policy Institute (GPI), Professor of Political Science and International Relations at Bay Atlantic University (BAU) in Washington, told APA.
He said that the international information landscape regarding the Armenian occupation was extremely distorted: “They thought that Armenians were victims and Azerbaijanis were aggressors. This is completely absurd. You know that. But it is strange that people in other parts of the world, including the United States, where I am a citizen, received either completely wrong or the most distorted information.
I appreciate Azerbaijan’s liberation of all occupied territories and the beginning of negotiations with Armenia in good faith. Of course, there are still unfinished issues. An official peace agreement has not yet been signed. Azerbaijan’s rightful demand to change the Armenian constitution is also among these issues. Because that document still contains provisions regarding the fact that Karabakh belongs to Armenia,” he emphasized.
