Azerbaijan was forced to leave Minsk book fair

 Having no other books available except those anti-Armenian books, Azerbaijani representatives were forced to cease their participation in International book exhibition and fair of Minsk.

Belarusian capital hosts 18th international exhibition-fair February 9-13. Many countries, including Armenia and Azerbaijan, have their pavilions in the exhibition.

Azerbaijani side represented anti-Armenian literature there. They had books introducing their anti-Armenian propaganda and activities.

Armenian representatives told the organizers that they had only Armenian cultural books, while Azerbaijani pavilion represented books of national discrimination, hostility, etc.

The organizers have twice urged the Azerbaijani representatives to change the literature, but later it turned out that our neighbors had no other alternative to represent, which caused the closing of their pavilion and ceasing their participation.
