Timed to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the acquisition of sovereignty of the former Soviet republic, the event hosted a concert and a 19th century rug exhibition. One of the hot discussion topics was the recent Eurovision triumph and Mr. Bul Bul Ogly, the Ambassador to Russia, said that Azerbaijan had been touched by Russia giving them 12 points, the highest possible score at the contest.
Dr. Pivovar said that the level of trust and political management of the two countries inspired respect, evidenced, for instance, by the Forum in Baku that had taken place a year before.
